Raw Materials | 16a,17a-Epoxyprogesterone Hydroxyprogesterone |
16, 17α-epoxypregnan-4-ene-3, 20-dione (I. e. epoxyprogesterone) can be used by (on the epoxy group) hydrogen bromide addition and catalytic hydrogenation (removal of 16-position Bromine) to generate 17 α-hydroxypregnan-4-ene-3, 20-dione (ie 17 α-hydroxyprogesterone), the product was then prepared by (3-position, 17-position hydroxyl) acetylation and partial hydrolysis (3-position ketone and 4-position double bond restoration).
