Reactions of the title compounds (bearing an OH, OCH3 or OCOCH3 group at C(19)) involve 5(O)n, 7(O)π,n-participation by the 19-substituent or attack by an external nucleophile. The 6(O)π,n-participation does not occur. The behavior of 1,2-unsaturated (or epoxidated) compounds has been compared with the earlier described 2,3-unsaturated or epoxidated analogs. The 1,2-type is genarally less prone to participation. The reasons for this behavior are discussed.

Electrophilic Additions

On reaction with hypobromous acid, the unsaturated alcohol IIIa yields the diequatorial bromo epoxide XIX arising from the 5α,6α-bromonium ion XVIIIa on cleavage at C(5) by 19b-hydroxyl group with 6(O)n participation. By contrast, the bromonium ion XVIIIb generated from the unsaturated methyl ether IIIb is cleaved by water as external nucleophile to yield the unstable diaxial bromohydrin XX which undergoes cyclization to the oxirane derivative XXI. A comparison with the reaction course in homologs of the type I and II permits the conclusion that the change in regioselectivity, generally possible outcome of the 5(O)n participation, is only possible for the 6(O)n process if the participating group is a hydroxyl.

External Attack

Mechnism of hydrobromous acid addition to 2,3- and 5,6-unsaturated steroids bearing a 19-acetoxy group were established by means of isotopic labeling. In the cleavage of 2α,3α-bromonium ion III participation by the 19-acetoxyl predominates over external attack, 5(O)n process being the major (88%) and 7(O)π,n process the minor (10%) reaction. The external attack by water contributes only 2%. The 5α,6α-bromonium ion XI is cleaved by participation of the 19-acetoxyl at C(5) in a 6(O)π,n process (78%) via XII - XIII. Cleveage at C(6) leads to XIV and occurs partially with 7(O)π,n participation by the 19-acetoxyl (4%) and partially by external attack of water (8%). These results bring evidence for the formation of a seven-membered acetoxonium ion ring as intermediate in participation processes involving ester carbonyl groups.

Hypobromous acid addition to the diene VII yields two epimeric dibromo 6β,19a-epoxides, XVI (main product) and XVII, via the intermediary bromohydrin XIII. Products due to C-C bond formation were not observed. This fact is attributed to the mutual perpendicular arrangement of π-orbitals of the two double bonds in the diene VII. Hypobromous acid action upon the 5α,6β-diol IX and the dimethoxy derivative X afforded analogous products of 6(O)n participation by the 6β-substituent, i.e. the cyclic ethers XXII, XXIII and XXIV, XXV. Under the same conditions the 6β-acetoxy derivative XI gave a mixture of the cyclic ethers XXII and XXIII as products of 6(O)n participation, and the rearranged ketone XXVI. Mechanism of this rearrangement is discussed.

Hypobromous acid action upon the 2,3-unsaturated acetoxy derivative Ia results in the formation of two products, the bromohydrin IVa and the cyclic ether VI as a product of the participation of ether oxygen of the ester group. Both these compounds are formed from the 2α,3α-bromonium ion XIIIa. Under the same conditions the 5,6-unsaturated 19-acetoxy derivative IIa afforded a mixture of the following products: Bromohydrin Xa as the product of a normal reaction course and the isomeric bromohydrin VIIa arising by intramolecular interaction with the carbonyl oxygen of the 19-acetoxy group. Both these compounds are formed from the 5α,6α-bromonium ion XVIIIa. The epimeric 5β,6β-bromonium ion XVIIa gives rise to the bromohydrin XIa. The mechanism of these reactions, difference in behavior of both olefins I and II and the competition between ambident neighboring group participation and external nucleophile attack is discussed.
