Abstract
Synthesis of linear molecules containing two to four steroid units connected with the amide bonds was developed. As a repeating unit, 3β-hydroxyandrost-5-ene-17β-carboxylic acid (etienic acid) was used. An active ester of this acid with N-hydroxysuccinimide and its 3-azido analogue were prepared and methods for the preparation of higher oligomers were studied.
