C 26 H 40 O 4 , a steroid (3β, 20‐diacetoxy‐16α‐methyl‐allopregn‐17(20)‐ene) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2 1 2 1 2 1 . The unit cell parameters are a = 10.745(2), b = 11.190(3), c = 20.208(1) Å. The structure has been elucidated by direct methods. The final residual index ( R ) converges to 0.042, weighted residual index ( wR ) being 0.044. Rings A and B adopt normal chair conformation whereas ring C is found to be very close to chair and ring D exists in 14α‐envelope conformation. The ring junctions A/B, B/C, C/D are trans ‐fused about the bonds C5–C10, C8–C9 and C123–C14, respectively.
