Cholesterolより3-Hydroxyr-17-formamino-Δ^5,6-androsteneの合成

抄録

Utilizing the fact that 3-hydroxy-17-formamino-Δ^{5, 6}-androstene is practically insoluble in ether, Leuckart reaction was applied to the neutral substance contained in the oxidation product of cholesterol by which 3-hydroxy-17-formamino-Δ^{5, 6}-androstene, for the use of the synthetic preparation of testosterone, was easily isolated in pure form by the method hitherto unknown in literature.
