The oxygenation reaction of cholesteryl acetate 1 was examined with the Fe(III)(PA)(3)/O(2)/MeCN system using an electrochemical method. The constant potential technique gave mainly the 7-hydroxylated product stereoselectively, along with the 7-oxo product. This oxygenation system is mechanistically unique, requiring iron
