Diazoketone (13), prepared by standard methods from 5-formyl-8-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-carboxylic acid (7), was cyclized in trifluoroacetic acid to dienone (1) which under-went intramolecular 1,4-conjugate addition to afford the ethanophenanthrene derivative (15). Refunctionalization furnished dibenzoyloxy diacid (19) which cyclized in sulfuric acid specifically to the 8-carboxy-10,12-dibenzoyloxyperhydro-1H-2,10a-ethanophenanthrene-8,4b-carbolactone (2). Further refunctionalization to ketone (22), then formation of diazoketone (23) followed by photolysis in an aqueous medium, finally gave (1RS,4aRS,4bRS,7SR,8SR,9aSR,10SR,10aRS)-8-benzoyloxy-4a-hydroxy-1-methoxymethyloxymethylgibbane-1,10-dicarboxylic acid 1,4a-lactone (3) which may serve both as a model and intermediate for a radically new approach to the total synthesis of gibberellins.

New approach to the synthesis of steroid oximes bearing O-substituents with terminal amino groups was described. The easily accessible steroid O-(carboxymethyl)oximes were reacted with single-protected Boc-α,ω-diaminoalkanes to give corresponding amide intermediates. From them the Boc protecting groups were cleaved with trifluoroacetic acid to afford the desired steroid derivatives with terminal amino groups. The procedure was succesfully tested on steroids with O-(carboxymethyl)oxime group in positions 7 and 17. The decomposition of target products was observed during deprotection of substituted 19-oximes.

The orientation of cyclization of the reaction of methyl aroylacrylate (1) and aroylacrylic acid (8) with ethyl acetoacetate and/or thiourea leading to the formation of 4-aroylmethylcyclopentane-1,3-dione (2) 5-aryl-3-oxocyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic acid (9), 2-imino-5-aroylmethylthiazolidin-4-one (11) and 6-aryl-2-sulfonylpyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid (14) depends on the medium employed; some compounds show moderate antiviral activities against tobacco necrosis virus.
