3β‐Hydroxy[21‐ 14 C]5β‐pregn‐8(14)‐en‐20‐one ( 17 ) was prepared from chenodeoxycholic acid ( 1a ). The synthetic sequence involved: ( i ) degradation of the bile‐acid side chain to an etianic acid; ( ii ) formation of the 8(14)‐double bond; ( iii ) inversion of the configuration at C(3); ( iv ) construction of the acetyl side chain at C(17) with the required isotopic label at C(21). Structures of all described products were confirmed by chemical and spectroscopic (IR, 1 H‐NMR, 13 C‐NMR, MS) methods.
