Notes:
The two structurally similar 20-phenyl- and 20-(4-methoxyphenyl)-11-(nitrosooxy)pregnan-20-ol derivatives 4 and 7 behave differently under photolytic conditions, the former nitrous acid ester affording, as a main product, the benzo-fused hexacyclic compound 9, and the latter the 21-nitro derivative 12. Mechanistic aspects of these transformations are discussed.
