What is The Alumina-catalyzed Addition of Diazomethane to Steroidal Ketones about?

In connection with an investigation of easy methods for the preparation of B and C-homosteroids, we studied the alumina-catalyzed (1) addition of diazomethane to several steroidal ketones. During these studies a specificity for epoxide formation was observed that was apparently a combined function of the catalyst as well as the A-B ring fusion. The alumina-catalyzed (Woelm, neutral, activity I) reaction of 5pandrostan-17p-ol-3-one, l\_, (2) with excess distilled diazomethane in ether\*\* resulted in a three-component mixture. Silica gel chromatography afforded a small amount of A-homo-5p-androstan-17p-ol-4-one, z;\*\*\* mp, 170-171~ bit. (3) mpf 172.5-173q
