Abstract
3BETA-Benzoyloxy-14alpha, 15alpha-cholest-7-ene was obtained in 96% yield upon treatment of 3beta-benzoyloxy-5alpha-cholesta-7, 14-diene with m-chloroperbenzoic acid. The delta7-14alpha, 15alpha-epoxy-steryl ester provides a useful intermediate for the syntheses of sterols with an oxygen function at carbon atom 15. For example, treatment of 3beta-benzoyloxy-14alpha, 15alpha-epoxy-5alpha-cholest-7-ene with methanolic hydrochloric acid gave 3beta-benzoyloxy-5alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-15-one in 82% yield.Entities:
