Abstract
Interesting reactivities have been observed upon reaction of epoxy-spi roketal 1 with a variety of dimethyl-aluminum sulfides, and are compar ed with results obtained upon reaction of the same epoxide 1 with diet hyl aluminum cyanide. These chemical modifications provide access to n ovel avermectin B2a analogs possessing interesting biological properti es.
