Abstract

During the past decade, the principles of conformational analysis (31, 32, 33, 125, 223) have been widely employed as an aid in the elucidation of the stereochemistry of steroids (163), terpenoids (32, 44, 223), alkaloids (97), and carbohydrates. The conformational analysis of carbohydrates has already been adequately treated elsewhere (162, 260, 279), and the use of this approach in the study of sesquiterpenoids has also been surveyed (265; see also 91). The present review will be concerned mainly with the application of conformational principles in the steroid and triterpenoid fields. The more important papers on this topic published up to the end of 1960 have been surveyed.
