Conclusions
-
1.
The13C and1H NMR spectra of isomeric steroids of the 17-aza and 17a-aza series with an amidine fragment in the D ring have been investigated.
-
2.
The13C chemical shifts make it possible to identify isomeric steroids and to determine the position of the double bond in the amidine fragment. It has been shown that compounds with a single substitution in the amidine fragment exist in the acylimine form, while the disubstituted compounds exist in acyl- and diacylamide forms. The acylimine form forms a cyclic intramolecular hydrogen bond of the NO=O...HN type.
-
3.
The γ effects of an =NR group in the D ring in an eclipsed conformation are similar to the γ effect of the oxygen atom in a carbonyl group in D-homoandrostanes.
-
4.
The rotation of a 17a-diacylamide group, unlike that of a 17-acylamide group, is hindered.
