Popis: Steroidal ketone oximes, namely pregnenolone oxime, Δ5-cholesten-3-one oxime, and progesterone dioxime react with acetylene in superbasic systems (Trofimov reaction) to afford steroid-pyrrole assemblies. The process is accompanied by prototropic migration of double bonds in the steroid fragment and vinylation of hydroxy groups in sterols with acetylene. The O-vinyl group can readily be removed by methanolysis.
