Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

Heterocyclic analogs of prostaglandin, dl-2-(trans-3-hydroxyocten-lyl)-N-(6-ethoxycarbonylhexyl)pyrrole and -indole were obtained by the condensation of 2-formylpyrrole and 2-formylindole with 2-oxoheptylidenetriphenylphosphorane, followed by alkylation with ethyl 7-iodoheptanoate and reduction of the keto group by sodium borohydride.
