Abstract: | The 6-oxo group in 2,3:20,22-di-O-isopropylidene derivatives of 20-hydroxyecdysone and its 24,25/25,26-anhydro analog is reduced with NaBH4-CeCl3 in a stereoselective fashion to afford the corresponding 6α-alcohols. In the first case, the reaction is accompanied by dehydration to give Δ14-bond. Reduction of the same substrates with NaBH4 or LiAlH4 in the absence of CeCl3 leads to mixtures of 6α- and 6β-hydroxy derivatives, the latter prevailing. In all cases, epimerization at C5 occurs. |
