✦ Synopsis
The structures 9 and 8 are proposed for the single isolated irradiation product of 5-oxo-5,10-secocholest-I( 10)en-3cc -yl acetate (6) [2] and for the minor product of irradiation of 5-oxo-5,10-secocholest-l(l0)-en-3~ -yl acetate (1) [3], respectively. These compounds are formed in an alternative reaction with respect to the originally observed intramolecular Puterno-Bu'chi photoprocess (transformation of 1 to oxetane 2). The formerly postulated 'active' conformations for 1 and 6 still allow explanation of their generation.
