Novel cyclization substrates of the formula: ##STR1## wherein: (a) R.sub.1 is H or alkyl of one to four carbons; (b) R.sub.2 is H or alkyl of one to four carbons, with the proviso that R.sub.1 is H when R.sub.2 is alkyl; and with the proviso that P.sub.2 is H when R.sub.1 is alkyl; (c) R.sub.3 is a leaving group selected from the group consisting of OH, alkoxy of one to four carbons, alkoxyalkyoxy of from two to about four carbons, acyloxy of from about one to about seven carbons, and trialkylsilyloxy; (d) R.sub.4 is halogen, alkoxy of from one to four carbons, hydrocarbyl of from one to about four carbons, hydrocarbyl of from one to about four carbons substituted by one or more (1) halogens or (2) alkoxy moieties of from one to two carbons; and (e) R.sub.5 is H, alkyl of one to six carbons, hydroxy, or an esterified or estherified moiety of (1) less than eight carbons selected from the group consisting of alkoxy, trialkylsilyloxy, aralkyloxy, cyclo-alkoxy, and heterocyclo-oxy radicals; (2) .alpha.-alkoxyalkoxy of from two to four carbons, and (3) acyloxy of from one to seven carbons; leads by way of a cyclization step to 6.alpha.-substituted steroidal derivatives of the formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 have the meaning above and R.sub.6 is alkyl of from one to about four carbons. The compounds of the formulae VI, VII and VIII are important intermediates for preparing wellknown biologically active 6.alpha.-substituted steroids.
