A stereoselective synthesis of 4, a possible biosynthetic precursor of lipoxins, is reported. A pathway is suggested by which 4 can give rise to the biologically active lipoxins 1 and 2. In 1984 Serhan, Hamberg and Samuelsson reported that human leukocytes convert 15(S)-

A highiy strained Il-memberedpara-ansa cyclopeptide, a potentialprecursor of the cyclopeptide alkaloid, nummularine-F, was made by cyclization of a pentafluorophenyl ester under catalytic hydrogenation conditions. This cyciization and the stereoselective synthesis of the acyclic activated ester f/am
A four-step synthesis of 3 beta-hydroxy-5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-15-one (I) from 7-dehydrocholesterol is described. This synthesis, which is efficient and suitable for kilogram scale work, was carried out in a 33% overall average yield (39% overall best yield). A major byproduct of the hydrolysis of
