Abstract

[reaction: see text] Various C-16 hydroxy steroids have been prepared with the aid of CrO(3)/Bu(4)NIO(4). Out of the two possible reaction courses, transition state B is favored because of less steric interference between substrate and CrO(4). Thus, C-H bonds at C-16 are oxidized selectively.
