Example 9 Degradation of tigogenin to 3β-hydroxy-5α-pregn-16(17)-ene-20-one and 4R-methyl-δ-pentyl lactone 100 g of tigogenin, dissolved in acetic acid and acetic anhydride, was kept in the pressure kettle at 200° C. for one hour, then the low boilers were removed under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in 500 ml of BuOH. 200 mg of Na3[P(W12O40)] and 50 ml of hydrogen peroxide (30% H2O) were added, and this mixture was stirred for 2 hours at 80° C. After NaOH was added, it was kept on refluxing for 2 hours. The mixture was concentrated, diluted with water, and filtrated to get 70 g of 3β-hydroxy-5α-pregn-16(17)-ene-20-one in 92% yield. m.p. 207-9° C., [α]20D=+51° (c 0.9 CHCl3), 1H-NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3)δ(ppm): 6.59 (dd, J=1.3 Hz, 1H, 16-H), 3.45 (m, 1H, 3-H), 2.26 (s, 3H, CH3CO-, 21-H), 0.83 (s, 3H, 18-H), 0.89 (s, 3H, 19-H). MS (m/z, %): 316 (M+), 301 (M+-CH3), 283 (M+-CH3-H2O), 159, 145, 115, 105, 91, 43. The water layer was acidified and extracted with organic solvent to give 21 g of 4R-methyl-δ-pentyl lactone in 80% yield.
