RESUMO
The syntheses of five compounds isomeric with the potent luteolytic agent cloprostenol are described. These are the trans-delta 5, cis and trans-delta 4, cis-delta 6 (methyl ester) and cis-delta 13 analogues. The cis-delta 4 isomer is as potent as cloprostenol as a luteolytic agent in hamsters but the others are markedly less so.

Prostaglandin analogues in which the alkyl chain attached to C-15 in the natural compounds is replaced by an aryl group have been synthesised. Some of these compounds are potent luteolytic agents and comparisons are drawn between this series and 16-aryloxyprostaglandins.

Prostaglandin analogues in which the alkyl chain attached to C-15 in the natural compounds is replaced by an alkyoxyalkyl group have been synthesised. Compounds of the 17-oxa series are particularly potent luteolytic agents and are selective in the sense that they are less effective than PGE-2alpha in causing isotonic contractions of isolated uterus muscle.
