摘要: Abstract 5,6,α-Epoxy-6β-methyl-5α-cholestane, like its 3β-acetoxy derivative, undergoes rearrangement with boron trifluoride to give the 5β-methyl-A-homo-B-nor-4a-ketone. The 3-deoxy-4a-ketone, however, a further 5-methyl-5β-cholestan-6-one. 3β-Acetoxy-5,6β-epoxy-6α-methyl-5β-cholestane reacts rapidly fluorohydrin, which suffers slower both 5β-methyl-A-homo-B-nor-4a-ketone and 3β-acetoxy-5-methyl-5α-cholestan-6-one. In contrast, 3-deoxy 5β,6β-epoxide gives 6-methyl-cholesta-3,5-diene, 5-acetyl-B-nor-5β-cholestane, 5-methyl-5α-cholestan-6-one.
