Fe. Ziegler et Ak. Petersen, TANDEM CYCLOPROPYLCARBINYL OXIRANYLCARBINYL RADICAL REARRANGEMENTS - AN ENTRY INTO THE PROSTAGLANDIN B-1 SERIES, Tetrahedron letters, 37(6), 1996, pp. 809-812
A tandem radical fragmentation of a cyclopropylcarbinyl/oxiranylcarbin
yl system leads to the PGB(1) series of prostaglandins. Control of cyc
lopropane bond fragmentation as a function of C-2 substitution in bicy
clo[3.1.0]hexanylcarbinyl radicals is presented.
