Abstract

Abstract The synthesis of three dimeric steroids 1,2, and 3, as components of artificial lipid bilayer membranes, is described. Di(3β-hydroxyfurost-5-en-26-yl) (1) was obtained from diosgenin by reductive fission of a ring F, substitution of -OH by -l, and the Wurtz reaction. Two other dimers 2 and 3 were synthesised from the pregnanoic ester 10 by an “alkylation-reduction” procedure.
