Abstract
Novel 6-acyloxy-3,20-dioxo-1,4,6-pregnatrienes and 6-acyloxy-3,20-dioxo-4,6-pregnadienes, useful anti-inflammatory agents, are prepared by reaction of the corresponding 3,6,20-trioxo-1,4-pregnadiene or 3,6,20-trioxo-4-pregnene with an acyl halide or an acid anhydride in pyridine. Preferred anti-inflammatory agents are 6-alkanoyloxy-9.alpha.-halogeno-16-methyl-1,4,6-pregnatriene-3,20-diones. Also described are novel 6-oxo-9.alpha.-halogeno-16-substituted-1,4-pregnadienes, useful as intermediates in preparing the corresponding 6-acyloxy-1,4,6-pregnatrienes and which also exhibit anti-inflammatory activity per se.
