The preparation and reactivity of steroidal vinyldiazo compounds is reported, providing a convenient, substituent tolerant, chemo- and stereoselective entry into 4- and 6-substituted androgen analogues from a common precursor. Under dirhodium catalysis, O-H insertion occurs at the carbenoid site, leading to 4-substituted steroids, but under silver catalysis, O-H insertion occurs at the vinylogous position, leading to 6-substituted steroids.

Chlorine at an sp2-carbon in steroids has been shown to be reactive in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions with either Ni or Pd catalysts. The coupling of analogous 6-bromo derivatives has also been demonstrated to be applicable to a wider scope of substrates. The Suzuki-Miyaura arylation of 6-bromo-Δ3,5-steroid enol ethers with subsequent hydrolysis is a useful route to 6-arylated steroids bearing aryl at a saturated carbon. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
