## Abstract A novel method for the reductive epoxide opening in a 14β, 15β‐epoxy‐20‐oxo‐Δ^16^‐pregnene **4** affords an almost quantitative yield of the 14β‐hydroxy‐20‐oxo‐Δ^16^‐pregnene **5.** This leads to a considerable improvement of the formerly published synthesis of 3‐O‐methyl 17 α, 20ξ‐tetr

✦ Synopsis
A New Route to 1, 3‐Dicarbonyl Derivatives, Model Investigations on the A/B‐Part of‐3‐Oxo‐5α‐steroids
Starting from 1 the 1, 3‐dicarbonyl compounds 4a–d were synthetized via the enynes 2a–e and the relatively unstable epoxides 3a–d. The latter were reacted with 95% formic acid to gave 4a–d; small amounts of the furane derivatives 5a–c were identified as by‐products in this last step. In the presence of catalytic amounts of HgSO~4~ the epoxides 3a–c yielded with 95% formic acid the furanes 5a–c, but no detectable amounts of 4a–c.
