摘要:
Novel 19-oxygenated steroids of the 20-spiroxane series of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sup.3 is a lower alkyl radical carrying an oxygen-containing functional group and R.sup.4 is two hydrogen atoms or an oxo group, and which carry a double bond or a methylene group in the 6,7-position or carry a lower alkanoylthio group in the 7.alpha.-position, and the corresponding 17.beta.-hydroxy-21-carboxylic acids of the formula ##STR2## in which R.sup.3 is as defined above, and which carry a double bond or a methylene group in the 6,7-position, as well as salts thereof and 1,2-dehydro derivatives of all of these compounds are advantageous as potassium-saving diuretics in therapy since they antagonize the physiological effects of aldosterone but have only slight side effects on sexual functions of the body. The compounds are obtainable by conventional general preparation processes of steroid chemistry.

19-Oxygenated steroid compounds of the pregnane series of the formula I ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 represents a hydrogen atom, andR.sup.2 represents an .alpha.-oriented lower alkanoylthio group, orR.sup.1 and R.sup.2 together represent a carbon-carbon bond or an .alpha.-or .beta.-oriented methylene radical,R.sup.3 represents a free hydroxymethyl group or a hydroxymethyl group etherified by a lower alkyl or esterified by a lower alkanoyl; or represents a formyl group, a carboxyl group or a lower alkoxycarbonyl group, andR.sup.4 represents a hydrogen atom or the acyl radical Ac of a carboxylic acid,and corresponding 1,2-dehydro derivatives have valuable aldosterone-antagonizing properties with a minimum effect on sexual functions. As the compounds reduce the excessive sodium retention and potassium excretion induced by aldosterone, they are especially useful as the active ingredient in pharmaceutical preparations for alleviating diseases involving hyperaldosteronismus in man and other warm-blooded animals.

An advantageous diuretic action by excretion of water, sodium and chloride ions, with reduced excretion of potassium ions, is effected by combined administration of a 19-oxygenated steroid compound of the pregnane series of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.a represents a hydrogen atom, andR.sub.b represents an .alpha.-oriented lower alkanoylthio group, orR.sub.a and R.sub.b together represent a carbon-carbon bond or an .alpha.- or .beta.-oriented methylene radical,R represents a free hydroxymethyl group or a hydroxymethyl group etherified by a lower alkyl or esterified by a lower alkanoyl; or represents a carboxyl group or a lower alkoxycarbonyl group, andR.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom or the acyl radical Ac of a carboxylic acid,as the aldosterone-antagonising component A on the one hand, and, on the other hand, of a conventional diuretic which is unspecific in respect of electrolyte excretion, e.g. a diuretically effective derivative of benzothiadiazine, benzenesulfonamide, phenoxyacetic acid, benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid or 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid, as component B. The two components A and B can be administered separately or together as an appropriate composition or pharmaceutical preparation.

A novel group of 18,18-difluorosteroids of the general formula ##STR1## wherein St, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the meanings given hereinafter is produced by a chemically novel process characterized in that a corresponding 18-oxo compound is treated with a compound of the formula F.sub.3 SX, wherein X denotes a fluorine atom or an amino group derived from a secondary amine. The compounds of the invention are useful as pharmaceutical intermediates. A number of them are physiologically active and possess hormone-like properties, e.g. those of sexual and/or adrenocortical hormones, such as the gonadotropin-blocking, ovulation-blocking, androgenic, oestrogenic, progestagenic, anabolic, antioestrogenic, antiandrogenic, mineralocorticoid, glucocorticoid and antiinflammatory activity, and can be used in lieu of known hormones or agents possessing corresponding hormone-like properties.

A new method for converting 11.beta.,18; 18,20-bis-epoxy-pregn-20-enes to 11.beta.,18-epoxy-18,21-dihydroxy-20-oxo-pregnane compounds or functional derivatives thereof is described and claimed. It consists in treating said bis-epoxy compounds with a heavy metal acylate having an acyloxylating action, such as lead - (IV), cerium - (IV), mercury - (II) and thallium - (III) - acylates. Preferred agent is lead tetraacetate. The reaction is conducted in a solvent or suspending agent like benzene or its homologs or chlorinated paraffins, like methylene chloride, preferably at room temperature and optionally in the presence of an acid.In the 21- acylates of 11.beta.,18-epoxy-18,21-dihydroxy-20-oxo-pregnane compounds thus obtained the 21-hydroxy group and any other protected functional groups can be set free in manner known.The process is especially important for the manufacture of aldosterone or its derivatives.
