Procedure

To a solution of 433 mg. of 15-hydroxy-9-oxoprostanoic acid (Example 186) in 4.5 ml. of tetrahydrofuran, stirred in an ice-bath under nitrogen atmosphere, is added dropwise 3.7 ml. of 0.76 M lithium perhydro-9b-boraphenalylhydride. After 40 minutes at 0°C. there is added 1.62 ml. of 3N sodium hydroxide followed by 1.62 ml. of 30% hydrogen peroxide. Ether is added and the resulting solution is acidified with 2N hydrochloric acid. The ether layer is washed several times with saturated sodium chloride solution, dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate and taken to dryness to give 300 mg. (70%) of waxy solid; nmr 3H singlet δ 4.64 (hydroxyl and carboxyl protons), 1 H singlet 4.22 (9β-carbinolic proton, 80%), 1 H singlet 3.88 (9α-carbinolic protons, 20%), 1 H singlet 3.61 (15-carbinolic proton), and 3 H distorted triplet 0.90 (terminal methyl).
