Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The steric and structural direction of the reaction of the 16α,17α-epoxypregnenolone hydrazone with thioacetic acid confirms the previously proposed mechanism for the opening of the hydrazones of oxides.

  2. 2.

    A method was developed for the synthesis of steroids of the pregnane series that contain sulfur at C-17.
