A new example of a steroid-amino acid hybrid: construction of constrained nine membered D-ring steroids.

A new archetype of steroid-amino acid hybrids containing a nine membered D-ring with hetero atoms has been synthesized for the first time from estrone and amino acids by using Yamaguchi coupling reactions.
