Abstract
The transformation of dehydroepiandrosterone by Spicaria fumoso-rosea VKM F-881 produced 7α- and 7β-hydroxy-dehydroepiandrosterone, 3β,7α-dihydroxy-17a-oxa-D-homo-androst-5-en-17-one, and 3β,7β-dihydroxy-17a-oxa-D-homo-androst-5-en-17-one. The yield of the main product—3β,7β-dihydroxy-17a-oxa-D-homo-androst-5-en-17-one—was 49.5–72 mol % at substrate loadings of 5–20 g/L. Lactone formation proceeded through 7α- and 7β-hydroxy derivatives of dehydroepiandrosterone. The structure of the products was determined by mass spectrometry, 1H-NMR spectroscopy, and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. The proposed microbiological method for producing steroid lactones opens prospects for the synthesis of novel steroid compounds.
