Oxidation of Steroidal 5-En-3β-ol with Pyridinium Chlorochromate: Isolation of Key Intermediate, Steroidal 6β-Hydroxy-4-en-3-one
摘要:
The PCC oxidation of 5-en-3 beta-ol steroids proceeds to 4-en-3,6-dione through the intermediate 5-en-3-one. The isolation of another key intermediate, steroidal 6 beta-hydroxy-4-en-3-one guides an understanding of the mechanism involved.
