BRASSINOSTEROIDS WITH A CHOLESTANE SIDE CHAIN
Kohout, Ladislav,Strnad, Miroslav
, p. 447 - 458 (2007/10/02)
The synthesis of 2α,3α-dihydroxy-B-homo-7-oxa-cholestan-6-one (VI), 2β,3β-dihydroxy-B-homo-7-oxa-5α-cholestan-6-one (VIII) and 2α,3α-dihydroxy-B-homo-6-oxa-5α-cholestan-7-one (XI) is described.The activity of these brassinosteroids in the bean second internode bioassay is lower than the activity of 24-epibrassinolide (XXI).

Steroidal 6-nitroolefins (I-IV) undergo facile reaction with NH3-MeOH-Zn yielding exclusively the corresponding 6-one oximes (V-VIII) in quantitative yields.The method appears to be of general applicability.
