This paper presents a modified method of the selective allylic oxidation of cholesteryl benzoate. Pyridinium chlorochromate, in refluxing benzene, has been found to be an effective and convenient reagent for the efficient oxidation of cholesteryl benzoate to 7‐ketocholesteryl benzoate in high yield. Also included herein are the carbon‐13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectral properties of 7‐ketocholesteryl benzoate and cholesteryl benzoate.
