Hydroboration of an inseparable mixture of 2,8-dimethoxy-5,6-dihydrochrysene (5a) and 2,8-dimethoxy-4b-methyl-4b,5,6,12-tetrahydrochrysene (6a) followed by oxidation with alkaline hydrogen peroxide gave a mixture of (4bα,10bβ,11β)-2,8-dimethoxy-4b-methyl-4b,5,6,10a,11,12-hexahydrochrysen-11-ol (10a) and its (4bβ,10bβ,11β) isomer(11a). Reduction of the methanesulfonate ester of (10a) with lithium aluminium hydride in ether gave 2,8-dimethoxy-4b-methyl-trans-4b,5,6,10b,11,12- hexahydrochrysene (2b), identical with material prepared by another route. Reduction of the methanesulfonate of (4bβ,10bβ,l1β)-2,8-dimethoxy-4b-methyl-4b,5,6,10a,11,12-hexahydrochrysen- 11-ol afforded 2,8-dimethoxy-4b-methyl-cis-4b,5,6,10b,11,12-hexahydrochrysene (12), demethylation of which afforded 4b-methyl-cis-4b,5,6,10b,11,12-hexahydrochrysene-2,8-diol (14b). Dehydration of the mixture of the 11-epimeric alcohols (10a) and (lla) with phosphorus oxytrichloride in pyridine yielded pure 2,8-dimethoxy-4b-methyl-4b,5,6,12-tetrahydrochrysene (6a) which was demethylated with methylmagnesium iodide to give the corresponding dihydroxy compound (9). Other compounds prepared in the course of examining possible routes to (9) and (14b) include 13,13-dichloro-2,8-dimethoxy-4b,5,6,10b,11,12-hexahydro-4b,10b-methanoch rysene (3a), 1-bromo- 2,8-dimethoxy-5,6-dihydrochrysene (5b), and 11-bromo-2,8-dimethoxy-4b-methy1-4b,5,6,12-tetra- hydrochrysene (7). The oestrogenic activities of some of the new angularly methylated hydrochrysenes and of 9α- methyloestradiol (15) are reported.

Keratin from wool is a reactive, biocompatible, and biodegradable material. As the biological structural component of skin (soft keratins) and of nails, claws, hair, horn, feathers, and scales (hard keratins) pure keratin comprises up to 90% by weight of wool. Wool was treated in alkaline solutions to extract from 68% to 82% keratin within 2 to 5 hours of exposure at . The keratin products were water-soluble and were confirmed to contain intermediate filament and microfibrillar component-proteins of fractured, residual cuticle, and cortical cells. Oxidation of wool by peroxycarboximidic acid in alkaline hydrogen peroxide produced keratin products with distinct microcrystalline structures: descaled fibers, fibrous matrices, and lyophilized powders. Morphology and confirmation of peptide functionality were documented by SEM, Amino Acid Analysis, SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis, MALDI-TOF/TOF, and FTIR analyses. The reactivity of keratin from wool models the reactivity of keratin from low-value sources such as cattle hair.
