Functionalisation of Saturated Hydrocarbons. Part 6. Selective Oxidation of Steroids and Related Compounds

The oxidation of a series of steroids by the Gif system gives, almost without exception, the 20-ketone as major isolated product.The side-chain cleavage is made more selective by modification of rings A or B.The oxidation of oleana-1,12-diene-3,11-dione has also been studied and the two principal products have been identified.
