Abstract: | During the alkaline methanolysis of 3beta-acetoxy-21-chloropregn-5-ene-20beta-N-phenylurethane (4a), and its 4-monosubstituted (4b-e) and 3,5-disubstituted (4f) phenyl derivatives, cyclization occurs, in the course of which 17beta-3-(N-phenyl)-2-oxazolidon-5-yl]androst-5-en-3beta-ol (5a) and its substituted phenyl derivatives (5b-f) are formed. The cyclization takes place with (N(-)-5) neighboring group participation. The reaction of 3beta-acetoxy-21-azidopregn-5-en-20beta-ol (3d) with triphenylphosphine gave 3beta-acetoxy-21-phosphiniminopregn-5-en-20beta-ol, which reacted in situ with carbon dioxide with the participation of the sterically favored 20beta-OH to give the unsubstituted steroidal cyclic carbamate (8). Oppenauer oxidation of the 3beta-hydroxy-exo-heterocyclic steroids (5a-f, 9) yielded the corresponding Delta(4)-3-ketosteroids (7a-f, 10). The inhibitory effects (IC(50)) of these compounds on rat testicular C(17,20)-lyase were investigated with an in vitro radioligand incubation technique. The N-unsubstituted 17beta-(2-oxazolidon-5-yl)-androst-4-en-3-one derivative (10) was found to be a potent inhibitor (IC(50)=3.0 microM). |
