Abstract

Studies from a number of laboratories have led to prostaglandin analogs of high potency and increased specificity largely by variation of the ω chain, that is the alkyl unit beyond C-15: particularly intriguing analogs being the 16,16-dimethyl-,3 20-ethyl-,4 and various substituted 16-benzyloxy-nor-17,18,19,20-prostaglandin analogs.5 At present these are prepared by the standard Corey route,6 in which ω-ylation precedes α-ylation.
