Partial electron impact induced mass spectra are given of 3α-hydroxy-, 3β-hydroxy-, 3β-methoxy-, 3α-acetoxy- and 3β-acetoxy-4,4-dimethyl-A-homo-4a,6-cholestadienes, 3α,5α-epoxy-4,4-dimethyl-A-homo-5-cholestane, isomeric 4,4-dimethyl-A-homo-5-cholestene-3α(β),4aα(β)-diols, their 3-acetoxy derivatives and 3-methyl ethers. The fragmentation of the molecular ions of these substances involves the usual elimination of substituents (in the form of H2O, CH3OH, CH3COOH, CH2CO), but the most abundant and characteristic ions are products of the contraction of ring A (to a six- or five-membered one), accompanied by expulsion of a fragment containing the carbon atom C(4) with both methyls.

Acid-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of 6,7-dihydroxy-3α,5-cyclo-6,7-seco-5α-androstan-17-one (VII), 5,7-dihydroxy-3,5-methylene-5,7-secoandrostan-17-one and 5,7-dihydroxy-3β,5-cyclo-5,7-seco-A-homo-5β-androstan-17-one (XIII) in benzene and dioxane was investigated. The main cyclization products were 3,5-methylene-6-oxaandrostan-17-one (I) and/or 3β,5-cyclo-6-oxa-A-homo-5β-androstan-17-one (VIII). In the case of VI and VII the ratio of I and VIII was solvent-dependent: in benzene more VIII was formed than in dioxane. The mass spectra of I and VIII were almost identical and corresponded to the structure VIII.
