Abstract

Abstract Mild and regioselective conversion of 3-keto-5α-and 3-keto-5β-steroids (trans A/B- and cis A/B-ring juncture, respectively) to the corresponding enones (Δ 1-and Δ 4-3-ketones) by treatment with o-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) catalyzed by trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in DMSO, is described. The IBX-mediated reaction involved dehydrogenation of the α-and β- hydrogen atoms of the 3-ketones to give the enones regioselectively in good isolated ...
