Abstract
Acetolysis of all possible configurational isomers of 3-methanesulfonyloxy-7-benzoyloxy-5α,6α-cyclopropanocholestanes is described and structure of the acetolysis products determined by spectroscopic methods. The 7-substituted derivatives show a greater propensity to elimination reactions than the 7-unsubstituted compounds.
