1-Oxo-4-oxa-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophenanthrene is converted into racemic benz[3,4]-6-oxaestra-1,3,5(10),8-tetraen-17 beta-ol in 45% yield.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D004963 Estrenes Unsaturated derivatives of the ESTRANES with methyl groups at carbon-13, with no carbon at carbon-10, and with no more than one carbon at carbon-17. They must contain one or more double bonds. 19-Norandrostenes,19 Norandrostenes
D006865 Hydrogenation Addition of hydrogen to a compound, especially to an unsaturated fat or fatty acid. (From Stedman, 26th ed) Hydrogenations
D013237 Stereoisomerism The phenomenon whereby compounds whose molecules have the same number and kind of atoms and the same atomic arrangement, but differ in their spatial relationships.
