Zusammenfassung

Es wird über die Herstellung des 16-Methylprednisons berichtet, welche vom Hecogenin ausgehend über ca. 15 Stufen durchgeführt wird. Als wichtige Zwischenstufe treten 5α-Pregn-16-en-3β-ol-11, 20-dion-Acetat und 16-Methylen-5α-pregnan-3β, 17α-diol-11, 20-dion auf: letzteres wird durch eine stereospezifische katalytische Reduktion in das entsprechende 16β-Methyl-derivat umgewandelt.
