The endoperoxide II has been shown to be a key intermediate m the synthesis of primary (E and F) prostaglandins from C20 unsaturated fatty acids such as all cis-eicosa-8,11,14-trienoic acid.

✦ Synopsis
A considerable effort has been devoted to synthetic studies of natural and modified prostaglandinsL'*. We have been engaged in a research programme having as its objective a new chemical synthesis that would allow access to natural prostaglandins as well as to many modified prostaglandins, not readily obtainable by other synthetic schemes.
We wish to report a synthesis of dl-11-deoxy-PGEl (9&) which illustrates

Synthons for 11-deoxyprostanoids and II-ketosteroids are available via intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions between oxygenated dienes and attached butenolides. Because of their biological significance, scarcity, and structural diversity, the prostanoid and steroid hormonal agents have held the atte
