17α-Hydroxy-17β-methyl-5β-androstan-3-one,17β-methyl-5α-androstane-3α ,17α-diol,17β-methyl-5α-androstane-3β,17α-diol, 17α-methyl-5β-androstane-3β,17β-diol,17β-methyl-5β-androstane- 3α,17α-diol and 17β-methyl-5β-androstane-3β,17α-diol were synthesized for the first time. ¹H NMR spectra of all four 17ξ-hydroxy/17ξ-methyl C-3 ketones and all eight C-3 alcohols were recorded in chloroform-d and pyridine-d₅. Pyridine-induced chemical shifts are discussed. Thin-layer chromatographic data are given.
