Abstract

The reaction of 23-oxotigogenin acetate with TMSOTf in THF afforded the corresponding bisnorcholanic lactone in 60% yield. The analogous reactions carried out in dichloromethane or benzene gave the rearranged products--the isomeric spirostanic ketone (10-15%) and bisfuran (40-42%). Similar products were also obtained upon treatment of 23,24-epoxysapogenins with BF(3). The epoxides treated with TiCl(4) afforded mostly chlorohydrins and no rearranged products were detected.
