Abstract

Desmostanyl 3a-acetate (5) was synthesized from litocholic acid and converted into the aziridine 8, the essential steps being addition of iodine isocyanate to 5 which was converted to the corresponding carbamate 7. Treatment of 7 With alcoholic base formed the aziridine 8. Analogous sequence of reactions led to the formation of aziridine 9 from stigmasteryl acetate.
