Stereochemistry of the reaction of D(positive)-2,3-epoxybutane with alcohols. The coordination reaction between silver ion and alkynes. Some relationships of sterols to plant growth

PART I. The reaction between D(+)-2,3-epoxybutane and alcohols is accompanied by a Walden inversion. The 3-methoxy-2-butanol prepared in this manner is an erythro-isomer, for meso-2,3-dimethoxybutane can be prepared from it by the Williamson synthesis. PART II. Permanganate oxidation under...
