Syntheses of methoxyestrogen glucuronide acetate-methyl esters.

Abstract
In connection with studies on estrogen metabolism, methoxyestrogen glucuronide acetate-methyl esters having the 16,17-ketol and -glycol structures were prepared as new and potential metabolites. These compounds were satisfactorily obtained from catechol estrogen 2- and 3-methyl ethers by Koenigs-Knorr reaction with methyl acetobromoglucuronate employing cadmium carbonate as a catalyst.
