Popis: An improved synthesis of spin-labeled cortisol, cortisone, and testosterone using N, N'-cyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) is reported. The spin labeled steroids are shown to result from the esterification at the most reactive C(21) and C(17) hydroxyl groups. A mild and high yield oxidation of cortisol spin label to cortisone spin label by chromium trioxide-pyridine is also discussed.
