Synthesis of 7α-methyl-19-nortestosterone 6-chloro(methoxy) nicotinates

Abstract

New 7α- and 7β-methyl-19-nortestosterone derivatives containing 6-chloro- or 6-methoxynicotinic acids fragments at C-17 have been prepared. The key intermediate, 19-nor-6-dehydrotestosterone acetate, was synthesized from diosgenin. A copper(I) chloride catalyzed 1,6-conjugate addition of methylmagnesium iodide to 19-nor-6-dehydrotestosterone acetate led to a mixture of 17β-acetoxy-7α-methylestr-4-еn-3-one as a major product and their 7β-isomer. Methanolysis and then acylation of made compounds with 6-chloronicotinoyl chloride or 6-methoxynicotinoyl chloride gave the corresponding target 17β-(6-chloronicotinoyloxy)-7α-methylestr-4-en-3-one, 17β-(6-chloronicotinoyloxy)-7β-methylestr-4-en-3-one and 17β-(6-methoxynicotinoyloxy)-7α-methylestr-4-en-3-one.
