Reactivity of ethanediyl S,S-acetals; 5. On the aromatization of the ring A in 3-oxosteroid derivatives R. Caputo; C. Ferreri; G. Palumbo; S. Pedatella; F. Russo
Ethanediyl S,S-acetal (1,3-dithiolane) derivatives of 3-oxosteroids, when treated with bromine in anhydrous chloroform at room temperature, undergo ring A aromatization following a dienone-benzene like steroidal skeleton rearrangement that leads to 1,4-dithian fused 4-methylestranes. The easy replacement of the sulphur atoms may afford 4-methylestranes with variously substituted A rings
Erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp
Three cases of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp are reported. In all patients the dermatosis was characterized by pustular, erosive, and crusted lesions; in addition, two patients had areas of scarring alopecia. The results of laboratory tests, bacteriologic and mycologic investigations, and histopathologic examination were nondiagnostic. Although erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp is characterized by a nonpathognomonic clinical and histopathologic picture, it probably represents a disease entity
