Abstract
Two short synthetic routes to the major metabolites of prostaglandins in man are reported. First, the 2,3,4,5‐tetranorprostaglandins 1 and 2 are readily accessible by one‐carbon homologation of γ‐lactone 8 which involves the use of an ylide reagent, prepared from (1,3‐dithian‐2‐yl)triphenylphosphonium chloride (9), subsequent cyclization of thioketene S,S‐acetal 10 to spirotricyclic 11, and desulfurization to yield the required δ‐lactone 12. Second, 6‐oxoprostaglandins 3 and 4 are conveniently synthesized via α‐acylation of the enolates of γ‐lactones such as 22 followed by deprotection, hydrolysis, and decarboxylation of the resultant 3‐oxocarboxylic acids. Both approaches have been realized with the synthesis of deuterated, racemic analogues of the prostaglandin metabolites.
