Abstract

Reduction of 1-benzoyl-2α-methyl-4-oxo-cis-decahydroquinoline with sodium borohydride and sodium in alcohol has given 1-benzoyl-2α-methyl-4Β-hydroxy-cis-decahydroquinoline, which exists in the steroidal conformation with diaxial α, α′-substituents in the piperidine ring and with an equatorial hydroxy-group. Debenzoylation of this has given the last of the eight theoretically possible isomers of 2-methyl-4-hydroxydecahydroquinoline, namely 2α-methyl-4Β-hydroxy-cis-decahydroquinoline, which exists in the nonsteroidal conformation with an axial hydroxy-group.
