β¦ Synopsis
surmnary 3 [4-HI-Dehydroretinol (2) was prepared from a vitamin A derivative. The procedure involves conversion of methyl retinoate (1) to methyl 4-oxoretinoate (2) by manganese dioxide oxidation. The 3 ~l a b e l was introduced by sodium borotritide reduction of methyl 4-oxoretinoate (2) followed by acid catalyzed dehydration to methyl [4-HI-3-dehydroretinoate (4). Reduction of the tritiated methyl 3 dehydroretinoate with lithium aluminium hydride yielded [4-HI-3-dehydroretinol (2). Final purification was achieved by preparative thin layer chromatography. 3 3 3 Key words: [4-HI-3-Dehydroretinol, methyl [4-HJ-3-dehydroretinoate methyl 4-0xoretinoate~ sodium borotritide Introduction and Discussion 3-Dehydroretinol (vitamin A 1 is a naturally occurring 2 analogue of retinol (vitamin A,).

## Abstract The reduction of condensed imides 1 with sodium borohydride proceeds regioβ and stereoselectively to yield the hydroxylactams 2, 3 and 4. AM1 calculations of the reactants and products reveal that the regiochemistry of the reductions seems to be controlled by both electronic and steric
