Reactions of 5-alpha-hydroxy steroids. VII. The westphalen rearrangement of some 3-beta-substituted-6-beta-acetoxy-5-alpha-hydroxy cholestanes.
Abstract Product analyses and kinetic studies of the reactions of 3β-substituted-6β-acetoxy-5α-hydroxy cholestanes with H 2 SO 4 -Ac 2 O-AcOH reveal a marked dependence of the reactions upon the nature of the 3β-substituent.
