ABSTRACT:
A process for preparing 11-deoxyprostaglandin E.sub.1, E.sub.2 and E.sub.3 and analogs thereof is realized by treating an appropriate di(lower)alkyl 3-(optionally substituted)-2-formylcyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxylate with an ylid prepared from a Wittig reagent of formula (AlkO).sub.2 POCH.sub.2 CO--(c)-CH.sub.3 in which Alk is an alkyl containing one to three carbon atoms and (c) is either (CH.sub.2).sub.q wherein q is an integer from 1 to 6 or cis CH.sub.2 CH.dbd.CH(CH.sub.2).sub.r wherein r is an integer from 0 to 3 to obtain the corresponding compound of formula: ##STR1## in which R.sup.2 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or CH.sub.2 OR.sup.3 wherein R.sup.3 is lower alkanoyl, R.sup.4 is lower alkyl and (c) is as defined herein. The latter compound is reduced with an alkali metal borohydride to yield the corresponding alcohol derivative. Condensation of this alcohol derivative or preferably its corresponding tetrahydropyran-2-yl ether derivative with a triester of formula CH(COOR.sup.6).sub.2 --(a)-(CH.sub.2)pCOOR in which R and R.sup.6 are lower alkyl, (a) is CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2, cis CH.dbd.CH or C.tbd.C and p is an integer from 2 to 4, gives the corresponding cyclopentanonetriester of formula ##STR2## in which (a), (c), p, R, R.sup.4 and R.sup.6 are as defined herein, R.sup.5 is hydrogen or tetrahydropyran-2-yl, respectively, and R.sup.7 is hydrogen or lower alkyl; the lactonized form of the cyclopentanonetriester being obtained from said alcohol derivative in which R.sup.2 is CH.sub.2 OR.sup.3 wherein R.sup.3 is lower alkanoyl. In the instance when R.sup.5 is tetrahydropyran-2-yl the cyclopentanonetriester is treated with an acid to give the corresponding compound in which R.sup.5 is hydrogen. The instant compound is then treated with a base under aqueous conditions, followed by optional esterification and acylation to give the desired 11-deoxy-prostaglandin derivatives of formula ##STR3## in which (a), (c) and p, are as defined herein, (b) is trans CH.dbd.CH, R is hydrogen or lower alkyl, R.sup.1 is hydrogen or lower alkanoyl and R.sup.2 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or CH.sub.2 OR.sup.3 wherein R.sup.3 is hydrogen or lower alkanoyl. The derivatives possess prostaglandin-like biological activity and methods for their use are given.
