Abstract:
Process for the manufacture of 4-chloro-3-oxo-14 Beta -hydroxyor 4-chloro-3,14 Beta -dihydroxy-carda-4,20(22)dienolides wherein 3-oxo-carda-4,14,20(22)-trienolides are at first treated with chlorine, the compounds obtained are converted by hydrogenolysis into 3-oxo-4-chloro-carda-4,14,20-trienolides, these are treated with N-bromo-acid amides, and the 3-oxo-4chloro-14 Beta -hydroxy-15 Alpha -bromo-carda-4,20(22)-dienolides thus obtained are treated with Raney nickel and may be reduced.
