Abstract

Some 4β-hydroxy-4α-methyl-5α-androstanes were synthesized and their microbiological hydroxylation by Cephalosporium aphidicola was examined in order to explore the possibility of a biosynthetically patterned methylcarbinol: vicinal glycol biotransformation; however the substrates were hydroxylated mainly at C-7.
