Abstract:
CARDIOACTIVE 3B - HYDROXY-14,15B-OXIDO-14B-BUFA-4,20, 22-TRIENOLIDE-3B-(A-L-RHAMNOPYRANOSIDE). METHOD OF MAKING THIS COMPOUND BY ACYLATING AND DEHYDRATING PROSCILLARDIN, FORMING A HALOHYDRIN FROM THE RESULTING $14-OLEFIN, DEHYDROGALOGENATING TO FORM THE 14,15B-EPOXIDE, AND HYDROLYZING TO FORM THE FREE LRHAMNOPYRANOSIDE.
Abstract:
A PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF PREGNANE-20-ONE3B,5B,14B,21-TETROL, USEFUL AS A STARTING MATERIAL FOR PHARMACEUTICALLY VALUABLE COMPOUNDS OF THE PREGNANE SERIES, BY CONVERTING $414-PREGNADIENE-3,20-DIONE-21-OL TO THE CORRESPONDING 3,20-BIS-ALKYLENE-DIOXY-$5,14-PREGNADIENE21-OL WIT ETHYLENE GLYCOL OR NEOPENTYL GLYCOL, ACYLATING TO FORM THE 21-ACYLATE AND THEN PARTIALLY DE-KETALIZING THE ACYLATE TO PRODUCE 20-ALKYLENE-DIOXY-$4,14-PREGNADIENE-3ONE-21-ACYLATE, REDUCING THE 3-KETO GROUP WITH AN ORGANOMETALLIC REDUCING AGENT, WHEREBY THE 21-ACYLATE GROUP MAY ALSO BE CONVERTED BY THE REDUCING AGENT TO THE 21-OL, ACYLATING THE 20-ALKYLENE-DIOXY-$4,14-PREGNADIENE-3,21-DIOL OR -3-OL-21-ACYLATE TO FORM 20-ALKYLENE-DIOXY-$4,14PREGNADIENE-3,21-DIACYLTE, TREATING THIS WITH HYPOBROMOUS ACID TO FORM 5A,15A-DIBROMO-20-ALKYLENE-DIOXY-PREGNANE-3B,5B,14B,21-TETROL-3,21-DIACYLATE AND DEBROMINATING WITH A BASE TO FORM 20-ALKYLENE-DIOXY-4B(5B), 14B(15BDIOXIDO-PREGNANE-3B,21-DIOL OR THE CORRESPONDING -3,21-DIACYLATE, AND REDUCING TO 20-ALKYLENE-DIOXY-PREGNANE-3B, 5B,14B,21-TETROL WITH AN ORGANOMETALLIC REDUCING AGENT. THE 20-ALKYLENE-DIOXY GROUP IS HYDROLYZED TO FORM THE DESIRED PREGNANE 20-ONE-3B,5B,14B,21-TETROL, WHICH MAY BE FURTHER REATED WITH DIHYDROPYRANE TO FORM THE CORRESPONDING -3B,21-DITETRAHYDROPYRANYL ETHER.

Abstract:
1362383 Cardenolides; bufadienolides FARBWERKE HOECHST AG 7 July 1971 [7 July 1970] 31974/71 Heading C2U [Also in Division A5] The invention comprises (A) the compounds 3#,14 - dihydroxy - 5α,14# - bufa - 20,22 - dienolide (Ia); 3#-hydroxy-5α,14α-card-20(22)- enolide; 3# - hydroxy - 5α - bufa - 14,20,22- trienolide; and 3#-hydroxy-5α,14α-bufa-20,22- dienolide; and (B) a process for preparing compounds of formula (wherein R 1 is the lactone ring of a 20(22)- cardenolide or 20,22-bufadienolide; R 2 is CH 3 , CH 2 OH or CH 2 OCOCH 3 ; R 3 is H, OH or acyloxy; R 4 is H; or R 3 + R 4 is epoxy or an extra C-C bond; and R 5 and R 6 are each H, OH or acyloxy) which comprises reducing the corresponding 3-oxo-# 4 compounds (wherein R 2 is alternatively CHO and R 5 and R 6 are each alternatively oxo) with a reducing agent which is more powerful than NaBH 4 , in the presence of an organic nitrogen base at - 30‹ to + 60‹ C. Any oxo groups at positions 11, 12 and 19 are reduced concomitantly. Specified reducing agents are the borohydrides of Li, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Zn and Al, the trimethoxy borohydrides of Na and Li, the aluminium hydrides of Na, Li and Mg, aluminium hydride, lithium trimethoxy aluminium hydride, diborane, pyridine-borane, ethane-1,2- diamine-borane and (3-methyl-2-butyl)borane. Compound Ia supra is alternatively prepared from 3# - hydroxy - 5α - bufa - 14,20,22 - trienolide (III) by the sequence : III # III 3- formate # 15α-bromo-(Ia)-3-formate # Ia 3-formate -# Ia. 3 - Oxo - 14α - bufa - 4,20,22 - trienolide is prepared from the corresponding # 5 -3#-ol by Oppenauer oxidation. Compounds I are said to be cardiotonic, and may be made up with carriers into pharmaceutical compositions for oral and parenteral administration.
