Summary 5α- and 5β-androstane-17β-ol-3-one-17-acetate have been prepared from 5β-androstane-6α, 17β-diol-3-one-17-acetate by a synthesis involving directedHuang-Minlon-reduction. Separation of 5α-androstane-17β-ol-3-one from its 5β-isomer could readily be achieved by crystallisation of their 3-ethylenketals from acetone.
