Popis: The X-ray structure of 17α-ferrocenylestradiol 1a shows that the ferrocenyl group is at the α position of the steroid, below the plane of the D ring. From acidic medium it is possible to obtain and isolate the derivative with a carbenium ion in 17-α position. This ion is transformed by various nucleophiles into the corresponding olefin 3 with CC at the C16C17 position. With NaBH 4 in acidic medium the reduction leads to a mixture of 17α- and 17β-ferrocenyl C 19 H 26 O 4a, 4b with a predominance of the β product, owing to a more favourable entrance of hydride in the α position. The oxidized derivative 17α-ferriciniumyl-estradiol tetrafluoroborate 5 was prepared and its are properties described.
