Abstract

Some fungi, especially strains of the genus Trichothecium were found to be able of introducing a hydroxy group into the 17 α‐position of the steroid molecule. By means of this microbiological process, cortexone was converted into 17 α‐hydroxy‐cortexone (Reichstein's substance S), 11‐dehydro‐corticosterone into cortisone, and finally corticosterone into 17 α‐hydroxy‐corticosterone (hydrocortisone) and cortisone.

## Abstract In continuation of our earlier work certain fungi were detected which are capable of hydroxylating steroids at further carbon atoms of the nucleus. These microbiological procedures have made possible the preparation of new cortexone derivatives with an additional hydroxyl group in 7α‐,
