โฆ Synopsis
The structures of pipcrolein acids guineensine and wisanine have been confirmed by synthesis. UV irradiation of trans piperolein B acid ester gave the &-isomer reported in the literature as the truns-isomer. The tram-2, trans-4 ethylenic bonds in guineensine and wisanine were introduced by reacting piperolein B aldehyde and 2-methoxy piperonal with the appropriate Wittig or Reformatsky reagent.
Recently we reported' the isolation and constitution R = -CO2H

The isolation, structure and synthesis of 5,6-Z-and E-fadyenolides, the simplest -butenolides of the piperolide series, are reported. We have previously shown that Piper sanctum from Mexico, contains a series of 4-methoxybutenolides (methyl tetronates) with further exocyclic conjugation extending f
The structure of hippospongic acid A was reinvestigated and new evidence supporting the revised structure previously proposed was obtained. The structure, including absolute configuration, was established by the enantioselective synthesis.
