The rearrangement of pennogenin 3,17-diacetate under the action of BF/sub 3/ x Et/sub 2/O gives the following products: 20S, 22R, 25R-16..cap alpha.., 17..cap alpha.., 22-(1',1',1'-ethylidenetrioxy)-22,26-epoxy-cholest-5-ene-3..beta..-ol-3-acetate and 20S, 25R-16..cap alpha..-0.17..cap alpha..-0.23-(1',1',1'-ethylidenedioxy-22,26-epoxycholest-5,22-diene-3..beta..-ol-3-acetate. Acetylation of C/sup 17/..cap alpha..-OH in the 25R-spirostan series leads to anomalously large effects on the values of chemical shifts of the /sup 13/C(C/sup 16/) and /sup 1/H(H/sup 16/) nuclei in their /sup 13/C and /sup 1/H NMR spectra.
