A novel D BCD ABCD route to 11-keto steroids is reported involving a high yield stereoselective intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of furan-diene 5a in water as a key-step.The dienophilic side chain is readily introduced starting from 2 via a sequence involving alkylation with ethyl 4-iodo-3-ethoxycrotonate, reduction and acid hydrolysis.The reduced adduct 8a, obtained in 24 percent overall yield from 2-methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione, is converted into (+/-)-adrenosterone (16) via base-opening to 9 and further transformation to 13, the dienediolate equivalent of which is a known intermediate in corticosteroid synthesis.

Conjugate 1,4-addition of 1-[(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy]-2-methyl- 1,3-cyclohexadiene (5) to 2-methyl-cyclopentenone in highly polar media and subsequent alkylation of the resultant silyl enol ether (4) with phenylthiodienyl carbonate 10 in 5.0 M LiClO4·Et2O provides substrate 2. Exposure of 2 to TMSOTf/TMSOCH2CH2OTMS affords tetracyclic bis-ketal 3, which is converted into (±)-adrenosterone (1) in four steps.

Total syntheses of (+/-)-cortisone and (+/-)-adrenosterone have been achieved in 18 steps with the aid of metal-assisted new synthetic sequences in particular, ene reaction and homoenolate chemistry.A novel double-hydroxylation reaction of enol silyl ethers leading to a single step construction of the dihydroxyacetone side chain in corticoids has been developed and applied to the synthesis of cortisone, cortexolone, and 16α-methylcortexolone.

A novel D BCD ABCD route to 11-keto steroids is reported involving a high yield stereoselective intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of furan-diene 12 in water as a key-step.The dienophilic side chain is readily introduced starting from 8 via a sequence involving alkylation with ethyl (E)-3-ethoxy-4-iodo-2-butenoate, reduction and acid hydrolysis.The reduced adduct 14 is further converted into (+/-)-adrenosterone (6) via 24, the dienediolate equivalent of which is a known intermediate in corticosteroid synthesis.
