Abstract

Gestodene acidic treatment afforded a single rearrangement product, namely 13-beta-ethyl-18,19-dinorpregna-4,14,16-trien-3,20-dione 3, which was originated through HCl-catalyzed Rupe rearrangement. Drospirenone acidic treatment yielded two epimeric lactones by addition of HCl to the 6beta,7beta-cyclopropane ring, namely 7beta-(chloromethyl)-15beta,16beta-methylene-3-oxo-17beta-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone 4 and 7beta-(chloromethyl)-15beta,16beta-methylene-3-oxo-17alpha-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone 5. The structure of the compounds was assessed by spectroscopic and crystallographic methods.
