p-Toluenesulphonic acid catalytic isomerization of 1,3,5(10),8-tetraene steroids in benzene or toluene with the presence of acetic acid is established as a simple high-yield (85 ~ 89%) procedure to the synthesis of the corresponding 9(11)-isomers. The solvation effect is discussed for the design of the new reaction media.
