Reaction Steps

(1S,2S,3R,5S)-(E)-7-(4-Carbomethoxybutylidene)-2-[4,4-difluoro-3(RS)-hydroxy-(E)-1-octenyl]-3-tetrahydropyranyloxybicyclo[3.3.0]octane (18) (0.175 g) was dissolved into methanol, to which 1N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide was added, and the mixture was stirred until the mixture became completely clear. After a usual work-up a crude product, (1S,2S,3R,5S)-(E)-7-(4-carboxybutylidene)-2-[4,4-difluoro-3(RS)-hydroxy-(E)-1-octenyl]-3-tetrahydropyranyloxybicyclo[3.3.0]octane (19), was obtained. Yield: 0.172 g
