Equilenin 2 and its derivatives are important intermediates in the synthesis of steroidal drugs. Until now, these estrogens were produced by extraction from pregnant mare's urine due to the lack of efficient synthetic methods. Most reported semisyntheses of equilenin involve expensive raw materials or toxic reagents to suppress undesired epimerization at C/D ring juncture. Herein, we reported a practical synthesis of highly pure equilenin and its derivatives from an easily available raw material 6 with conventional reagents.
Acid catalysed reaction of estrones with neopentyl glycol under forced conditions

Upon reaction with an excess of 2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diol (neopentyl glycol) under acid catalysis, estrones form 17-O-[2',2'-dimethyl-2'-(5", 5"-dimethyl-1",3"-dioxanyl)ethyl] substituted estra-3,17β-diols. The reaction represents a formal reduction of a keto function under acidic conditions in the absence of a metal.

Ciattini, Pier Giuseppe,Morera, Enrico,Ortar, Giorgio
, p. 1293 - 1297 (2007/10/02)
The title compounds are prepared in excellent yield by palladium-catalyzed reduction with triethylammonium formate of enol triflates of 6-oxo-estrogens.
