The intramolecular cycloaddition of 14, with dimethylaluminium chloride as a catalyst and under kinetic control, yielded the exo adduct 19a. Opening of the oxygen bridge in the reduced adduct 20 gave intermediate 21. Oxidation of the latter made it possible to introduce the methyl group at C‐10, which exclusively afforded 23, with the unnatural configuration. Further conversion resulted in the formation of D‐homo‐10‐epi‐adrenosterone (25). (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2002)
