Popis: Reduction of 3β-benzoyloxy-14α-methyl-cholest-7-en-15-one with lithium aluminum hydride yielded the two epimers (at C-15) of 14α-methyl-cholest-7-en-3β,15-diol. Studies with the corresponding isotopically-labeled diols indicated that one of the two isomers is convertible to cholesterol in rat liver homogenate preparations.
