<b>Synthesis of 7-dehydrocholesterol through hexacarbonyl molybdenum catalyzed elimination reaction</b>

The efficiency of hexacarbonyl molybdenum catalyzed elimination reaction of the allylic acetates has been improved by the presence of O,N-bis(trimethylsilyl) acetamide in the reaction medium. The methodology is particularly well employed for the elimination of 7-acetoxycholesterol-3-acetate(cholestr...
