A series of acyl esters of 3,17-β-estradiol has been prepared by an enzymatic methodology. Eleven 17-monoacyl products (five novel compounds) were obtained in a highly regioselective way by acylation of 3,17-β-estradiol or by alcoholysis of the corresponding diacyl derivatives. The influence of vari...
