I. An Investigation of the Utility of the Claisen Rearrangement in Angular Methylation as Illustrated by the Synthesis of 1-valeranone. II. The Total Synthesis of the Pentacyclic Triterpene d1-germanicol

<p>I. A new method of angular methylation was developed in a synthesis of 1-valeranone. This Claisen rearrangement-- decarbonylation procedure was further investigated on the substrate cholest-4-en-3β-o1.</p> <p>II. The synthesis of the pentacyclic triterpene dl-germanicol...
