Procedure
To a stirred solution of 0.5 g of 6β-bromo-7α-acetoxyandrosta-1,4-dien-3,17-dione in 30 ml of dimethylformamide and 1.2 ml of water are added 0.11 g of sodium azide. The reaction mixture is heated at 100° C. for 45 minutes, cooled, poured into 500 ml of iced water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts are washed with water, dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and evaporated in vacuo to give a residue which is purified by column chromatography on silica gel. Elution with n-hexane:ethyl acetate 70:30 yields 0.28 g of the title compound, m.p. 123°-125° C. (dec.);
