Abstract

The invention comprises compounds of the general formula <FORM:0826364/IV (b)/1> in which R is a hydrogen atom or an acyl radical other than -COCH2C(CH3)3 and -PO(OH)2, Y is halo, and Z is keto or b -hydroxy, together with a process for their preparation (including that of compounds wherein R is -COCH2C (CH3)3) by reacting a 2,4-dibromo-9a -halo-3,20 - diketo - 11 - oxygenated - 17a - hydroxy-21-acyloxy-allopregnane with a dehydrohalogenating agent, which may be a tertiary amine, e.g. collidine, or a nitrogenous ketone reagent, in which case the 3-keto group which couples with the reagent is subsequently liberated by reaction with a compound containing a free carbonyl group in the presence of an organic acid. The 21-acyl group may be finally removed by hydrolysis. Specified products of the invention are the 9a -chloro- and 9a -fluoro- D 1,4-3,20-diketo - (11b - hydroxy - or 11 - keto -) - 17a ,21-dihydroxy pregnadienes and the corresponding 21-acetates and propionates. In examples: (1) 9a - fluoro - 3,11,20 - triketo - 17a - hydroxy-21 - acetoxy - allopregnane is brominated in chloroform, and the resulting 2,4-dibromo derivative treated with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine giving D 1,4 - 3,11,20 - triketo - 9a - fluoro-17a - hydroxy - 21 - acetoxypregnadiene-(2,4 - dinitrophenylhydrazone) which with pyruvic acid in aqueous acetic acid gives the free trione; (2) as in (1), using the corresponding 11b -hydroxy compound to give D 1,4-9a -fluoro-3,20 - diketo - 11b ,17a - dihydroxy - 21 - acetoxy-pregnadiene; (3) and (4), 9a - fluoro - 3,20-diketo - 11b ,17a - dihydroxy - 21 - acetoxy-allopregnane is brominated in acetic acid containing HBr, and the 2,4-dibromo compound dehydrobrominated with collidine in dimethyl-formamide to the product of (2), which (5), is saponified to 9a -fluorohydroretrocortin; (6), 9a - fluoro - 3,11,20 - triketo - 17a - hydroxy-21-acetoxy-allopregnane treated as in (4) to (6) yields 9a -fluoro-retrocortin. Specifications 826,362, 826,365 and 826,369 are referred to.
