Abstract
An improved process for the preparation of pure 9.alpha.-fluoro-16.alpha.-methyl-21-acetoxy-.DELTA..sup.1,4 -pregnadiene-11.beta.-ol-3,20-dione comprising reacting 9.alpha.-fluoro-21-acetoxy-.DELTA..sup.1,4,16 -pregnatriene-11.beta.-ol-3,20-dione with a methyl magnesium halide in the presence of a catalytic amount of a cuprous halide effecting protonation of magnesian to form 9.alpha.-fluoro-16.alpha.-methyl-21-acetoxy-.DELTA..sup.1,4 -pregnadiene-11.beta.-ol-3,20-dione, reacting the raw product with an acetylation agent to acetylate the partially deacetylated product and purifying the reacetylated product with an organic solvent, treating in solution with a peroxidation agent and then purifying again with an organic solvent.
