Electrochemical dehydrogenation of steroidal DELTA 3,5 enol ethers under basic conditions to provide steroidal DELTA 4,6 dienones

An improved process for the preparation of steroidal DELTA 4,6dienones by the electrochemical dehydrogenation of the corresponding DELTA 3,5enol ethers under basic conditions, using less than stochiometric amounds of a high potential catalyst, such as 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-benzoquinone, in a part...

Zusammenfassung:An improved process for the preparation of steroidal DELTA 4,6dienones by the electrochemical dehydrogenation of the corresponding DELTA 3,5enol ethers under basic conditions, using less than stochiometric amounds of a high potential catalyst, such as 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-benzoquinone, in a partially aqueous electrolyte solution.
