INSERTION OF OXYGEN ATOM IN STEROID FRAMEWORKS -- A NEW METHOD OF TRANSFORMATION OF HYDROXYSTEROID INTO OXASTEROID
Suginome, Hiroshi,Yamada, Shinji
, p. 1233 - 1236 (1982)
A two-step transformation of saturated hydroxysteroids into oxasteroids is described; the reaction involves photo-reaction of the hypoiodites of the hydroxysteroids generated with mercury(II) oxide and iodine to give isomeric formyl esters , which are cyclized to oxasteroids with sodium borohydride.

D-Nor-5α-androstan-16-one was prepared via seven steps from 16-diazo-3β-hydroxyandrost-5-en-17-one.The major products of the photolysis of its acetylhydrazone in dioxane containing oxygen were the parent ketone and 17-oxa-5α-androstan-16-one, accompanied
