      le formol sur le     20-formyl43a-acétoxy-          11-oxo-5(3-pregnane,    la réaction étant catalysée par un       agent    alcalin.  



  Ce produit se signale par son activité     cardiotropique          accompagnée    d'une     action        dilatatrice        des        coronaires.     Il est donc     utilisable    chaque fois qu'une action spéci  fique sur le muscle cardiaque est nécessaire,

       cette    action       étant    de     surcroît        accompagnée    d'uns     augmentation        b6né-          fique    de     l'irrigation.        sanguine        dudit    muscle cardiaque.  



  Or, on a trouvé     maintenant    qu'un nouveau composé  appartenant au même groupe que le     composé    décrit  dans le brevet No 394186,     ,mais    ayant un hydroxyle au  lieu d'une cétone en     position    11, exerce encore la même  activité.

   Ces composés     peuvent    être     symbolisés    par la       formule    commune suivante  
EMI0001.0041     
    La     présente    invention se rapporte donc à la pré  paration de ce nouveau     composé,    à savoir le 3 a, l l     (3-          dihydroxy-20,20-bis-hyâroxym6thylène-5(3-pregnane,    qui  est obtenu .par la     réduction    du     3a,hydroxy-11-céto-          20,20-bis-hydroxyméthylène-5(3-pregnane    en     3a,11(3-          dihydroxy-20,

  20-bis-hydroxyméthydène-5(3-pregnâne    au  moyen d'un hydrure     mixte    alcalin dans un     milieu          approprié.     



       Dans    un mode d'exécution du     procédé        ci-dessus,    la  réduction est     effectuée    par action de l'hydrure de lithium  et     d'aluminium,        dans    le     tétrahydrofurane,    .mais on peut  également réduire la cétone en 11 par d'autres agents  de     .réduction        stéréospécifiques    tels que les     borohydrures     de potassium, sodium ou     lithium.     



       L'exemple    suivant illustre l'invention.  Exemple  <I>Préparation du</I>     3a,11(3-dihydroxy-20,20-bis-          (hydroxyméthylène)-S(3-preQnane     
EMI0001.0068     
    On introduit dans 30     #n3    de     tétrahydrofurane     800. mg     d'hydrure    de lithium et     d'aluminium    en main  tenant la     température    à     18o    C par un bain d'eau et de  glace.

       Puis,    on ajoute en     quinze        minutes,    à la même       température,    la     solution        suivante     - 50     cm3    de     tétrahydrofurane     - 800 mg de 3a     hydroxy-11-céto-20,20        bis-(hydroxy-          méthylène)-5        p-pregnane.     



  Ensuite, on ajoute     encore    15     cm3    de     tétrahydro-          furane    et     agite    le     mélange        réactionnel    pendant     quatre     heures, à     température    ambiante, et sous azote. L'excès           d'hydrure    de     lithium    et     d'aluminium    est     détruit    par       addition    de 16     cm3        d'acétate    d'éthyle.

   On introduit alors  sous agitation environ 18     cm3    d'une     solution    saturée de       chlorure    de     sodium        diluée    su     demi.    Le     précipité        minéral     formé est séparé e     la,

      phase organique puis     extrait    par  de     l'acétate        d'éthyle.    Les     solutions    organiques jointes  sont     ensuite    lavées par une     solution    saturée de chlorure  de     sodium        diluée    au demi, puis séchées sur sulfate de  sodium et évaporées sous vide.  



  La résine obtenue est dissoute dans 48     cm3    d'éthanol  que     l'on:        filtre,        concentre        ensuite    à 8     cm3    environ et  précipite à chaud par 10=3 d'eau. On essore alors le       précipité,        lave    à     l'alcool    à     50        %        glacé        et        sèche    à     800        C.     



  Les     cristaux    obtenus sont dissous dans un mélange  de toluène et     d'alcool;    la     solution    obtenue concentrée  et le produit cristallisé par     refroidissement.    On     obtient     374. mg, soit un     rendement    de 48 0/0, de produit de       fomnule    I, E = 210o C, [a]= + 35,8o (c = 1D 0/0,  éthanol).  



       Par        récupération    du deuxième jet à partir     des    eaux  mères de     purification:    à     l'alcool,    le rendement peut être       amélioré    de 13 0/0, ce qui donne au total un rendement  de 61 0/0.  



  Le     produit    est     soluble    dans l'alcool, peu soluble  dans le toluène et ]!,acétone,     insoluble    dans l'eau, l'éther,  le     benzène    et le     chloroforme.
