Reaction Steps
To a solution of 1.0 g of [5R,6R,8R,9S,11R,12S,15R,16R]-methyl 5-iodo-6,9-epoxy-11-methyl-16-fluoro-15-hydroxyprost-(13E)-enoate in 50 ml of hexane was added 0.75 g of tri-n-butyltin hydride and a catalytic amount of 2,2'-azobis (2-methylpropionitrile). This solution was warmed to 50° C. for three hours after which the solvent was removed and the residual materials separated by silica gel chromatography to give 0.72 g of [6S,8R,9S,11R,12S,15R,16R]methyl 6,9-epoxy-11-methyl-16-fluoro-15-hydroxyprost-(13E)-enoate.
