14β‐Hydroxysteroids, especially 14β‐hydroxyandrostane derivatives are closely related to the cardenolide skeletons. The latter were readily available through highly diastero/enantioselective Diels–Alder (DA) reactions requiring high pressure or Lewis acid activation. Moreover, in the presence of (R)‐ or (S)‐carvone as a chiral dienophile, the DA‐reaction takes place under chemodivergent parallel kinetic...
Numerous bioactive glycosteroids are characterized by aglycones bearing a 14β-hydroxy pregnane skeleton like boucerin and isoramanone. In general, the syntheses of the latter are achieved by acidic hydrolysis of the corresponding glycosteroids. These aglycones were also obtained by a combined Norrish type I–Prins reaction starting from the corresponding 12-keto-pregnane derivatives. However, for the...
14β-hydroxy pregnane glycosides extracted from Hoodia gordonii, a succulent plant isolated from Apocynaceae are suggested to have appetite suppressant properties in animals and humans. However, limited reports on biological studies concerning the appetite suppressant properties are available in the open literature. One reason for that is the poor availability of these glycosteroids because H. gordonii...
