Stereochemistry of formation and reduction of π-allyl palladium chloride complexes from steroidal olefins

Abstract
The regioselectivity and stereoselectivity of palladium π-allyl chloride complex formation from steroidal olefins was apparently controlled by steric effects, and both cholest-4-ene and cholest-5-ene gave diastereoisomeric complexes; two of the complexes were reduced to olefins by lithium aluminium hydride stereo-specifically with retention of configuration.
