Derivatives of 21-nor-5α-cholane-20,24-diol XI and XIX were prepared by stepwise construction of the side-chain in the position 17β. Their absolute configuration at C(20) was determined on the basis of chemical correlation with the derivatives of 21-nor-5α-cholan-20-ol, XVI and XXIV. The absolute configuration of alcohols XVI and XXIV was determined from the ratio of the yields in which they are formed during the reduction of ketone X and using the benzoate rule. To compounds XI-XVIII the configuration 20R and to compounds XIX-XXVI the configuration 20S has been assigned.

Reaction of the aldehyde I with the lithium salt of 1-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)-2-propyne yielded the compounds II and IV. From the compound II the lactone XII was prepared via the intermediates III and X, the lactone XVIII was prepared from the substance IV via the intermediates V and XVI. The unsaturated lactones XII and XVIII were also prepared by sulfenylation and dehydrosulfenylation of the saturated lactones XIII and XIX. Based on chemical correlation and 1H-NMR spectra analyses of the compounds II and IV, the lactone XII was assigned the 20R-configuration whereas the lactone XVIII was allotted the 20S-configuration.

Reaction of 5α-pregnan-21-al (V), obtained from ester of the corresponding acid III via the alcohol IV, with lithium salt of 1-methoxymethoxy-2-propyne afforded both the isomeric 25-methoxymethoxy-21,26,27-trinor-5α-cholest-23-yn-22-ols (VI and VIII) which were converted into two 21,26,27-trinor-5α-cholestane-22,25-diols (XI, XV). Absolute configuration of the alcohols X and XIV was assigned by chemical correlation with derivatives XXVI and XXVII of known absolute configuration at C(20). The correlation was based on reduction of thiocarbonates derived from the diols XXII and XXIV for which also Cotton effects of their complexes with nickel acetylacetonate were studied. Both diols were prepared from 5α-pregnan-20-one (XVIII) via 5α-pregn-20-yne (XIX) and the 21,26,27-trinor-5α-cholest-20-ene derivative XXI.

CD spectra of (S)-(-)-2-phenyl-1-methylpyrrolidine (I) and (S)-(-)-1-methyl-2-(2-tolyl)pyrrolidine (II) were calculated. Rotational strengths were calculated by direct procedure based on the CNDO/S-CI wave function. The most stable conformations were determined by total gradient optimization of molecular geometry and their molar fractions were calculated. CD spectra, constructed from the molar fractions and rotational strengths, agreed well with the experimental ones. Absolute configuration of compound II was established by the chemical correlation with (S)-(-)-hygrinic acid.

On the basis of spectroscopic, particularly 1H NMR data, isosilerolide was assigned structure I, including the absolute configuration. The structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Isosilerolide represents a new stereoisomeric type of natural eudesmanolides, characterized as 5βH, 6αH, 7αH, 10αCH3-eudesman-6,12-olide. As shown by the chemical correlation of isosilerolide (I) with silerolide (III) and lasolide (X), the latter two natural lactones belong to this stereoisomeric group of eudesmanolides. Analysis of models and 1H NMR data shows that structures of some eudesman-6,12-olides, published by other authors, should be corrected.

Structure analysis of (−) scopolamine N-oxide (1) hydrobromide monohydrate by X-ray crystallography has proven that the N-methyl group is axial and the amineoxide function is equatorial. The absolute configuration of the tropic acid residue has also been determined by anomalous scattering as being S, in complete agreement with chemical correlation experiments.The N-stereoisomer of 1 has also been detected as a minor product 2 for the first time, as a result of using 100 MHz n.m.r. spectroscopy in the product analysis of the oxidation of (−) scopolamine with hydrogen peroxide in ethanol. A similar n.m.r. study was undertaken with atropine and tropine and correlation of chemical shifts with N-configuration in the N-oxides, 3–6, was attempted. N-oxidation of scopolamine, and by analogy of related tropane bases, has taken a preferentially equatorial course, similar to other quaternization reactions.
