Abstract

Fermentation of 5α,6α-epoxy-3β-hydroxy-16-pregnen-20-one (4) with Trichoderma viride under aerobic condition yielded 3β,5α,6β-trihydroxy-16-pregnen-20-one (5) and 3β,5α,6β,15β-tetrahydroxy-16-pregnen-20-one (6). Each microbial metabolite was characterized by spectroscopic methods. Compounds 6 and 3β,5α,15β-trihydroxy-16-pregnen-6,20-dione (7) are reported for the first time.
