Abstract

The invention comprises 21-acetoxy-17a -hydroxy-5a (and 5-b )-pregn-3-ene-11,20-dione, 17b -acetoxy-5a - (and -5b )-androst-3-ene and 11b -hydroxy-5-androst-3-en-17-one, and a process for reducing by means of zinc and acetic acid, e.g. glacial acetic acid, 4,5-unsaturated-3-oxo and 5,6-unsaturated-7-oxo steroids containing the grouping <FORM:0887706/IV (b)/1> and free from substituents which sterically hinder the keto group from reacting to convert the above grouping into a grouping of the formula <FORM:0887706/IV (b)/2> and so produce respectively 3,4-unsaturated or a 6,7-unsaturated steroids, the weight of zinz employed is at least 10 times the weight of the steroid, e.g. at least 1,000 times the weight of the steroid. In the examples the compounds detailed above and cholest-3-ene, 3b -acetoxycholest - 6 - ene, cholesta - 3, 5 - dien - 7 - one, and androst-3-en-17-one are prepared.
