Reaction of an α,β-unsaturated nitro-compound with lithium dimethylcuprate. A novel synthesis of a 3α,5α-cyclosteroid

Abstract

Treatment of 3β-acetoxy-6-nitrocholest-5-ene with an excess of lithium dimethylcuprate gives 3α,5α-cyclocholestan-6-one (E)-oxime; its Beckmann rearrangement product, 3α,5α-cyclo-6-aza-B-homocholestan-7-one, failed to undergo a ‘retro-Beckmann’ rearrangement.
