The incubation of testosterone 1 with Ulocladium chartarum MRC 72584 has been reported. U. chartarum MRC 72584 hydroxylated testosterone 1 at C-7β, C-6β, C-14α and C-12β, accompanied by a 5α-reduction and oxidations at C-6 and at C-17.

In this work, biotransformations of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) 1 by Ulocladium chartarum MRC 72584, Cladosporium sphaerospermum MRC 70266 and Cladosporium cladosporioides MRC 70282 have been reported. U. chartarum MRC 72584 mainly hydroxylated 1 at C-7α and C-7β, accompanied by a minor hydroxylation at C-4β, a minor epoxidation from the β-face and a minor oxidation at C-7 subsequent to its hydroxylations. 3β,7β-Dihydroxy-5β,6β-epoxyandrostan-17-one 6, 3β,4β,7α-trihydroxyandrost-5-en-17-one 7 and 3β,4β,7β-trihydroxyandrost-5-en-17-one 8 from this incubation were identified as new metabolites. C. sphaerospermum MRC 70266 converted some of 1 into a 3-keto-4-ene steroid and then hydroxylated at C-6α, C-6β and C-7α, accompanied a minor 5α-reduction and a minor oxidation at C-6 following its hydroxylations. C. sphaerospermum MRC 70266 also hydroxylated some of 1 at C-7α and C-7β. C. cladosporioides MRC 70282 converted almost half of 1 into a 3-keto-4-ene steroid and then hydroxylated at C-6α and C-6β. C. cladosporioides MRC 70282 also reduced some of 1 at C-17.
The iron(II) complex [Fe(CF3SO3)2(mcp)] as a convenient, readily available catalyst for the selective oxidation of methylenic sites in alkanes

The efficient and selective oxidation of secondary C-H sites of alkanes is achieved by using low catalyst loadings of a non-expensive, readily available iron catalyst [Fe(II)(CF3SO3)2(mcp)], {Fe-mcp, [mcp=N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)cyclohexane-trans-1,2-diamine]}, and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as oxidant, via a simple reaction protocol. Natural products are selectively oxidized and isolated in synthetically amenable yields. The easy access to large quantities of the catalyst and the simplicity of the C-H oxidation procedure make this system a particularly convenient tool to carry out alkane C-H oxidation reactions on the preparative scale, and in short reaction times.
