THE substitution of a hetero atom for a 2-methylene group in steroid hormones should lead to products useful in the elucidation of the mechanism of biological action of these compounds. While such a replacement is not expected to change the shape of the molecule and is compatible with the presence o
## Abstract A series of cytostatically active metabolites have been isolated from microorganisms in recent years. These compounds, which are chemically closely related, are of a new structural type. A highly substituted hydrogenated isoindolone unit is fused to an 11β to 14βmembered macrocycle. The
