A novel class of β-formylsteroidal enamides has been prepare a from 16- dehydropregnenolone-20-oxime. Reaction of these enamides with Vilsmeier reagent affords steroidal geminal dichlorides in good yields. Reaction of the corresponding C-16 formylidenemalononitriie derivative with chloromethyleneiminium salt, however, leads to a ring-D fused pyndosteroid.
