Abstract
6,9-Oxido-9,10-seco-1,3,5(10),6,8,14-estrahexaenes, useful as intermediates in the total synthesis of steroids, of the formula ##SPC1## Wherein n is 1 or 2, R.sub.1 is lower-alkyl, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are H, alkoxy or acyloxy, X is a free or ketalized keto or free, esterified or etherified hydroxymethylene, are produced by the cyclization, with an acid catalyst, of a 9,10-secoestrane of the formula ##SPC2## Wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, X and n have the values given above and Q is carbonyl or dialkoxymethylene. Hydrogenation produces the corresponding 6,9-oxido-9,10-seco-1,3,5(10)-estratrienes and 9-oxy-9,10-seco-1,3,5(10)-estratrienes.
