The 7β-hydroxyepiandrosterone (4) is a kind of compound possessing strong anti-inflammatory properties. Using dehydroisoandrosterone as starting material, 3β-acetoxy-7-oxodehydroisoandrosterone (3) was obtained by acetylation and oxidization. In the presence of Ni2+, compound 3 was selectively reduced to give compound 4, its 7-epimer, 7α-hydroxyepi- androsterone (5) and byproduct 6. The condition of selective reduction was investigated further. The structures of all compounds were characterized by IR, NMR and MS techniques.

Key words: dehydroisoandrosterone, 7β-epiandrosterone, 7α-epiandrosterone, selective reduction
