<p>A process for preparing 17β-substituted 4-azaandrost-1-en-3-one compounds of the general formula (I): or a pharmaceutically approved salt thereof, where R is hydroxyl, optionally substituted, linear or branched (C1-C2)alkyl or (C1-C12)alkenyl; phenyl or benzyl; an—OR1 radical, or an—NHR1 radical, or an—NR1R2 radical; R1 is hydrogen, optionally substituted, linear or branched (C1-C12)alkyl or (C1-C12)alkenyl, or optionally substituted phenyl; R2 is hydrogen, methyl, ethyl or propyl; or—NR1R2 is a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring, by (A) introducing protecting groups into the 3-keto-4-aza moiety of the corresponding 1,2-dihydro compound, so that a compound of the general formula (III) is formed: where R3 is trialkylsilyl or, together with R4, the—C(O)—C(O)—or—C(O)—Y—C(O)—radical; R4 is alkyloxycarbonyl or phenyloxycarbonyl, preferably Boc (=tert-butyloxycarbonyl); or trialkylsilyl, or, together with R3, the—C(O)—C(O)—or—C(O)—Y—C(O)—radical; Y is—[C(R5)(R6)]n—or—CH(R5)═CH(R6)—, or ortho-phenylene; R5 and R6 are each independently hydrogen, linear or branched (C1-8)alkyl or alkenyl, optionally substituted phenyl or benzyl; and n is an integer of 1 to 4; and where, in the case that R is hydroxyl, it has optionally reacted with a protecting group; (B) reacting the resulting compound in the presence (i) of a dehydrogenation catalyst, and in the presence of (ii) optionally substituted benzoquinone, allyl methyl carbonate, allyl ethyl carbonate and/or allyl propyl carbonate, and (C) removing the protecting groups R3 and R4 and optionally converting the resulting compound to a salt.</p> |
