Abstract: Substituted phenyl and naphthyl esters of PGA.sub.2, 15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and 15(R)-15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and their racemic forms, and processes for producing them are disclosed. The products are useful for the same pharmacological and medical purposes as PGA.sub.2, 15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and 15(R)-15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and are also useful as a means for obtaining highly purified PGA.sub.2, 15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and 15(R)-15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2 products.
Abstract: Novel methods are disclosed for transforming PGA.sub.2 and 15.beta.-PGA.sub.2 and their acetates, methyl esters, and acetate methyl esters to various prostanoic acids and esters of the PGE.sub.2 and PGF.sub.2.sub..alpha. series. Some of the latter are novel and are useful for the same pharmacological purposes as PGE.sub.2 and PGF.sub.2.sub..alpha..
Abstract: 5-Oxa prostaglandin-type compounds and processes for making them. These compounds are useful for a variety of pharmacological purposes, including anti-ulcer, inhibition of platelet aggregation, increase of nasal patency, labor inducement at term, and wound healing.
Abstract: Substituted phenyl and naphthyl esters of PGE.sub.1, 15-alkyl-PGE.sub.1, and 15(R)-15-alkyl-PGE.sub.1, and their racemic forms, and processes for producing them are disclosed. The products are useful for the same pharmacological and medical purposes as PGE.sub.1, 15-alkyl-PGE.sub.1, and 15(R)-15-alkyl-PGE.sub.1, and are also useful as a means for obtaining highly purified PGE.sub.1, 15-alkyl-PGE.sub.1, and 15(R)-alkyl-PGE.sub.1 products.
Abstract: Substituted anilide esters of PGA.sub.2, 15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and 15(R)-15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and their racemic forms, and processes for producing them are disclosed. The products are useful for the same pharmacological and medical purposes as PGA.sub.2, 15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and 15(R)-15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and are also useful as a means for obtaining highly purified PGA.sub.2, 15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2, and 15(R)-15-alkyl-PGA.sub.2 products.
