abstract | The invention comprises compounds of the formula: <FORM:0959791/C2/1> <FORM:0959791/C2/2> wherein R3 is hydrogen, -SO2R2 wherein R2 is an alkyl or an aryl radical or the acyl radical of a hydrocarbon carboxylic acid containing from 1-12 carbon atoms inclusive, Y is hydrogen or methyl and X2 is the methylene radical, the carbonyl radical and the hydroxymethylene radical, therapeutic compositions thereof and a process for preparing a D 4-compound of the above formula which comprises converting a compound having the formula: <FORM:0959791/C2/3> wherein Y and X2 are as defined above, by methods known in the literature to a compound having the formula: <FORM:0959791/C2/4> wherein Y and X2 are as defined above and R5 is a lower alkyl radical containing 1-8 carbon atoms inclusive, converting the latter compound to a 3-enamine, reducing this with an alkali aluminium hydride and hydrolysing to remove the 3-enamine group to produce a compound of the general formula: <FORM:0959791/C2/5> wherein Y is as above defined and X1 is the methylene radical or b -hydroxymethylene radical, esterifying to produce the corresponding 21-ester and then subjecting this compound to oxidative hydroxylation to form a compound having the general formula: <FORM:0959791/C2/6> wherein Y and X1 are as above defined and Ac is the acyl radical of a hydrocarbon carboxylic acid containing 1-12 carbon atoms inclusive and then if desired oxidising to produce the corresponding 11-keto derivative and/or hydrolysing to produce the corresponding 21-free alcohol. Oxidative hydroxylation may be effected with osmium tetroxide and an amine peroxide or with an organic polyvalent iodo oxide, and oxidation at 11-position with chromic acid. Dehydrogenation in 1,2-positions may be effected microbiologically e.g. with Septomyxa, Corynebacterium or Fusarium or chemically e.g. with selenium dioxide. Esterification in 21-position may be effected with the anhydride or acid halide of a mono- or dicarboxylic acid or with an organic sulphonyl halide. D 9(11) compounds are obtained by subjecting the corresponding 11-hydroxy compounds to dehydration e.g. with an N-haloamide followed by anhydrous sulphur dioxide. The starting compound in the above process may be obtained (a) by ketalising a compound having the general formula: <FORM:0959791/C2/7> wherein Y is as defined above and X is the methylene or carbonyl radical, to produce the corresponding ketal, treating the thus-produced 3-ketal with an alkali metal cyanide to produce the corresponding 3-ketalised 16a -cyano -4-pregnene, ketalising the latter compound at 20-position to produce the corresponding 3, 20-diketalised 16a -cyano -4- pregnene, hydrolysing the 3, 20-diketalised compound to give the corresponding 3, 20-diketalised 16a -carboxy compound, esterifying the thus produced 16a -carboxy compound with ethereal diazomethane solution to produce the corresponding 3, 20-diketalised 16a -carbomethoxy -4- pregnene, reducing the 3, 20-diketalised -16a -carbomethoxy -4- pregnene thus produced or the 3, 20-diketalised 16a -carboxy -4- pregnene with lithium aluminium hydride to produce the corresponding diketalised 16a -hydroxymethyl 4-pregnene, reacting the 16a -hydroxymethyl compound thus produced with an alkyl or aryl sulphonyl halide and then with an alkali metal fluoride to produce the corresponding 3, 20-diketalised 16a -fluoromethyl pregnene hydrolysing the 16a -fluoromethyl compound thus produced with aqueous acid to produce the corresponding 16a -fluoromethyl -4-pregnene and then if desired in the case where the 11b -hydroxy compound is produced oxidising to produce the corresponding 16a -fluoromethyl -4- pregnene-3, 11, 20-trione; (b) by ketalising 3b -hydroxy -16a - cyano -5-pregnen -20- one to produce 3b -hydroxy -16a -cyano -5- pregnen -20- one 20-alkylene ketal, hydrolysing the 20-ketalised compound thus produced to obtain 3b -hydroxy -16a - carboxy -5-pregnen -20- one 20-alkylene ketal, treating the 16a -carboxy compound with dihydropyran to produce 3b -tetrahydropyranyloxy -16a - carboxy-5-pregnen -20- one 20-alkylene ketal tetrahydropyranyl ester, reducing the tetrahydropyranyl compound with lithium aluminium hydride to produce 3b -tetrahydropyranyloxy-16a -hydroxymethyl -5- pregnen -20- one 20-alkylene ketal, reacting the 16a -hydroxymethyl compound with an alkyl or aryl sulphonyl halide and an alkali metal fluoride to produce 3b -tetrahydropyranyloxy-16a -fluoromethyl -5- pregnen -20- one-20 alkylene ketal, hydrolysing the latter to give 3b -hydroxy -16a - fluoromethyl -5- pregnen -20-one, subjecting this to oxidation to produce 16a -fluoromethyl -4- pregnene-3, 20-dione, oxidising this at 11-position microbiologically to produce 11a -hydroxy -16a - fluoromethyl -4-pregnene-3, 20-dione and then oxidising at 11-position; (c) by treating a compound having the general formula: <FORM:0959791/C2/8> wherein R3 is hydrogen or the acyl radical of a hydrocarbon carboxylic acid containing 1-12 carbon atoms, with an alkali metal cyanide to produce 3a -hydroxy -16a - cyano -5b - pregnane-11, 20-dione, ketalising at 20-position to produce a 3a -hydroxy-16a -cyano -5b - pregnan-11, 20-dione 20-alkylene ketal, hydrolysing with aqueous alkali metal hydroxide to give a 3a -hydroxy -16a - carboxy -5b - pregnane-11, 20-dione 20-alkylene ketal, esterifying with diazomethane to give 3b -hydroxy -16a - carbomethoxy -5b -pregnane 20-alkylene ketal, oxidising to produce the corresponding 11-keto compound 16a -carbomethoxy -5b - pregnane-3, 11, 20-trione 20-alkylene ketal, ketalising at 3-position to produce 16a -carbomethoxy -5b - pregnane-3, 11, 20-trione 3, 20-bis-alkylene ketal, reducing with lithium aluminium hydride to give 11b -hydroxy-16a -hydroxymethyl -5b - pregnane-3, 20-dione bis alkylene ketal, hydrolysing to give 11b -hydroxy -16a - hydroxymethyl -5b - pregnane-3, 20-dione, reacting the 16a -hydroxymethyl -5b -pregnane-3, 20-dione with an alkyl or aryl sulphonyl halide and then with an alkali metal fluoride to produce 11b -hydroxy -16a - fluoromethyl -5b - pregnane-3, 20-dione bis-alkylene ketal, oxidising to produce the corresponding 11-keto compound and hydrolysing to give 16a -fluoromethyl -5b - pregnane-3, 11, 20-trione, treating this with a halogenating agent to give the corresponding 4-halo -16a - fluoromethyl -5b - pregnane-3, 11, 20-trione and then dehydrohalo genating the 4-halo compound.
