Abstract
Four different types of hydroxysteroids (primary alcohol, secondary alcohols, and phenol), bearing either an oxirane or an azide as a precursor of molecular diversity, were linked in good yields to solid support using the butyldiethylsilane polystyrene (PS-DES) resin. These molecules were then used as scaffolds to generate hydroxysteroid derivatives containing two levels of diversity. The proposed libraries were tested by running steroidal alcohols through a model sequence of reactions (solid-phase coupling, aminolysis of oxirane or reduction of azide, amidation, and final cleavage). As a result, two linked secondary alcohols (17beta-hydroxy-spiro-3(R)-oxirane-5alpha-androstane and 3beta-hydroxy-spiro- 17(S)-oxirane-5alpha-androstane) and a primary alcohol (spiro-17(S)-oxirane-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3,5(10)-estratriene) afforded good overall yields (>45%) and high HPLC purities (>90%) of hydroxysteroids derivatized as alkylamides without purification. One limitation was noted for the fourth library: the phenolic steroid linked by the diethylsilyloxy linker gave a poor overall yield of 8% of the desired model compound. Finally, the diethylsilyloxy linker was used successfully for a rapid solid-phase synthesis of a model library of twenty C19-steroid derivatives (3beta-amido-3alpha-hydroxy-5alpha-androstane-17-ones), with an average yield of 53% and average HPLC purity of 97% without purification steps.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
