Abstract: Novel antibacterially-active analogs of the antibiotics nodusmicin and nargenicin A.sub.1. These compounds are prepared by selectively blocking active hydroxyl groups at the 9, 11 and 18 positions of nodusmicin, and the 11 and 18 positions of nargenicin A.sub.1. Antibacterially-active compounds can be used in various environments to control or eradicate susceptible bacteria. The techniques for such use are well known in the art.

Abstract: The disclosure includes novel compounds which differ from the known prostaglandins PGF.sub.2.alpha., PGF.sub.2.beta., PGE.sub.2, PGA.sub.2, and PGB.sub.2 in that the carbon-carbon double bond in the carboxyl-terminated chain of the novel compounds is in the 4,5-position rather than in the 5,6-position, and in that there is a phenoxy or substituted phenoxy group in the other chain of the novel compounds. These novel compounds are useful for a variety of pharmacological purposes, including abortion, labor induction, and reduction of gastric secretion.

Abstract: Bicyclic lactone intermediates useful for preparing prostaglandin E.sub.2 -type, F.sub.2 -type, A.sub.2 -type, and B.sub.2 -type compounds with one or two methyl or ethyl substituents at the C-16 position are disclosed. These prostaglandin-type compounds are useful for the same pharmacological purposes as the corresponding prostaglandins.
