Summary
-
1.
In the condensation of 1-(2-acetoxyvinyl)-3,4-dihydro-6-methoxynaphthalene (I) with citraconic anhydride and with 2,5-dimethyl-p-benzoquinone the tetracyclic compounds (II) and (VI) with an angular methyl group in the 13-position, as in natural hormones, were formed.
-
2.
The presence of a methyl group at the double bond of the dienophile leads to the elimination of the elements of acetic acid and the formation of a Δ11 bond.
