An improved synthesis of 13-epi-steroids

Abstract
Treatment of oximes of 17-keto steroids with refluxing acetic anhydride and pyridine, and acid hydrolysis of the resulting enamides, constitutes an efficient route to 13-epi-17-keto-steroids; this observation is evidence that the former reaction proceeds by a freeradical pathway.
