Abstract
1. Acetolysis of the acetate of the 16β, 17β-oxide of dehydroisopregnenolone is accompanied by cleavage mainly at the C17-O bond and formation of rearrangement products, in contrast to the acetate of the 16α, 17α-oxide, where cleavage of the C16-O bond predominates. 2. Methanolysis of isomeric 16,17-oxides of dehydropregnenolone leads mainly to Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement products.
