| Abstract: | An efficient procedure for the preparation of 1α-hydroxycholesterol 3-acetate 4 is described, which starts from cholesterol and involves as key steps transannular cyclization of the ten-membered ring ontaining (E)-3β-acetoxy-5,10-seco-1(10)-cholesten-5-one 1 to the oxetane derivative 1α,5-epoxy-5α-cholestan-3β-ol acetate 3, and opening of the four-membered ether ring in the latter compound. 1β-Hydroxycholesterol diacetate 9 was obtained by oxidation of 4 to the 1-oxo derivative 8, followed by metal hydride reduction and acetylation. |
