dc.description.abstractA poster presentation about improving the yield in orthoesterification of steroids. Introduction: Steroids are used to treat various conditions from asthma to skin inflammation. Orthoesterification of steroids at C17 and C21 leads to the formation of compounds which are more potent than their parent steroids. Steroid orthoesters are synthesized by reacting a selected steroid with the respective orthoester. The parent steroid should have two hydroxyl groups situated in close proximity to react with the orthoester, for example at C17 and C21. An acid is used to catalyse the reaction. Aims: To synthesise and improve the yield of the orthoesterification of a steroidal compound.en_GB
