A synthetic method of 16S,20S-epoxypregnane-3S-ol acetate (4b) from pregnane-3S,16S, 20S-triol was developed. Then the epoxide-opening reaction of 4b was investigated under different conditions. The research results showed that 16S,20S-epoxypregnane-3S-ol acetate was chemo-selectively converted into 20R-bromopregnane-3S,16S-diol diacetate, 20R-bromopregnane-3S,16S-diol-3-acetate, 20R-chloropregnane-3S,16S-diol diacetate, 20R-iodopregnane-3S,16S-diol-3-acetate and pregnane-3S, 16S,20R-triol-3-acetate. These results not only provided new synthetic intermediates for the syntheses of steroidal drugs and natural steroids, but also presented epoxide-opening methods of steroids with an asymmetric oxetane ring.
