A palladium-catalysed aminocarbonylation of a steroidal iodoalkene (17-iodo-5α-androst-16-ene) model compound with 2,2′-diamino-1,1′-binaphthalene as an N-nucleophile was carried out. The combination of a steroidal skeleton possessing central elements of chirality and a binaphthyl moiety with axial chirality was carried out resulting in a novel type of steroidal carboxamides. The binaphthalene—steroid conjugates are potential 5α-reductase inhibitors. Both epimers of the monocarboxamide and those of the dicarboxamide, formed with moderate diastereoselectivity, were isolated and fully characterised.
