- Abstract
Ecdysone ( 9), a hormone responsible for the skin shedding process of arthropoda, has been synthesized. (20 S)-2β,3β-Diacetoxy-20-formyl-5β-pregn-7-en-6-one was prepared from the corresponding carboxylic acid and converted into ecdysone by a G RIGNARD reaction with 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol tetrahydropyran-2-yl ether, followed by hydrogenation of the triple bond, removal of the protecting groups, and hydroxylation in the 14α-position. C-22-isoecdysone was obtained as a by-product.
