17β‐Ethoxy‐3‐methoxy‐8‐isoestra‐1,3,5(10)‐triene

The conformation of the crystal of 17β‐ethoxy‐3‐methoxy‐8‐iso­estra‐1,3,5(10)‐triene, C₂₁H₃₀O₂, (I), has been established and compared with the molecular structure of a typical steroid estrogen 8‐iso‐analogue, (II). Calculations of distances separating some of the H‐atom pairs in (I) and (II) by molecular‐mechanical and semi‐empirical methods revealed the similarity of the values to the H⃛H distances obtained from X‐ray analysis.     

Applications of 2,5-bis(trimethylstannyl)thiophene. Synthesis of 3-methoxy-17α,-(5-iodothien-2-yl)-estra-1,3,5(10)trien-17β-ol

Monotransmetallation of 2,5-bis(trimethylstannyl)thiophene followed by the addition of estrone 3-methyl ether and iodine yields 3-methoxy-17α,-(5-iodothien-2-yl)estra-1,3,5(10)trien-17β-ol.

Preparation of 17β-(Hydroxymethyl)-3-methoxyestra-1,3,5(10)- trien-18-oic Acid 18,20-Lactone,a New C(18)-Oxygenated Steroid

Lactone 13 was synthesized by intramolecular radical-mediated oxygenation of the angular Me(18) group of the 17β-configurated sterol 3 . Several substrate-controlled methods for stereoselective construction of the hydroxymethyl side chain of 3 were investigated.
