Abstract: | With the report given herein all diastereomers of PGF2, PGE2, and PGD2 which bear the naturally recognized 15-S hydroxylated center, whether in the natural or -prostanoic acid skeleton, have been prepared by a route involving initial introduction of the carboxyl (α) chain (1). A major advantage of the initial α-ylation+ route is the facile reduction of the 13,14-en-15-one system with methanolic NaBH4 which proceeds without competing 1,4-reduction. The products are thus free of 13,14-dihydro-PG2 contaminants (2). The initial pharmaco logical evaluation of these diastereomers will be submitted for publication in this journal (3). |
