| Abstract: | (+/-)-Deoxy-10-hydroxy-PGE1 methyl ester (Va) has been synthesised via conjugate addition of the cuprate (III) to the 5-tetrahydropyranyloxycyclopentenone (IId). Va was found to be 0.1 times as active as PGE1 as a uterine stimulant in the anaesthetized pregnant rat, 0.25 times as active as PGE1 in causing vasodepression in the anaesthetized cat, and approximately equiactive to PGE1 in inducing bronchoconstriction. |
