Abstract:
A process is described wherein, by employing 17α-(3-hydroxypropyl)-6β,7β;15β,16β-dimethylene-5β-androstane-3β,5,17β-triol (II) as starting product, in a single stage reaction there is obtained drospirenone, (I), a synthetic steroid with progestogenic, antimineralocorticoid and antiandrogenic action, that is useful for preparing pharmaceutical compositions with contraceptive action.
