✦ Synopsis


An efficient two stage synthesis of the steroid anti-inflammatory agent mometasone 17furoate (Sch 32088) 4 from 17ct,21-dihydroxy-16ct-methyl-9~, 1 l[~-oxidopregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione e is described and the structures of unusual 6-hydroxy-¥-sultone byproducts of 4-dimethylaminopyridine catalyzed methanesulfonylation of 21-hydroxy-20-ketosteroids are deduced.
