Abstract

The synthesis of two isomeric brassinosteroids, analogues of brassinolide, containing the 2 beta,3 beta diol system typical of ecdysteroids and a five-membered lactone bonded to the steroid ring B is described. The synthesis leads to both lactones via a metal hydride reduction of the Diels-Alder adduct of ergosterol.
