Abstract
The recent finding'that a series of A2-androstene analogs had relatively high androgenic and anabolic activities led us to investigate the effects of substitution on this double bond, This communication reports the preparation of some 2-methyl-A*-androstenes as well as their double bond isomers, the corresponding C-2 exocyclic methylene analogs. High anabolic activity with low androgenicity was ohserved for this series of compounds. 2a- ...
