A-Nor-5α-cholestan-2-one (1) was oxidized with BSA under various conditions.The stoichiometric reaction afforded diketones (3 and 4) and α-phenylseleno-ketone (2) while catalytic oxidation with the BSA/PhIO2/p-TsOH system resulted in lactones (7a and 7b) and anhydrides (5 and 6).The mechanism of these reactions is discussed. Key words:benzeneseleninic anhydride, A-nor-5α-cholestan-2-one, catalytic oxidation.
