Abstract
An improved method for reducing methyl 12-methoxy-7-oxopodocarpa-5,8,11,13-tetraen-19-oate (1) to 12-methoxypodocarpa-5,8,11,13-tetraen-19-ol(2) with aluminium hydride is described. Reductions of 19-hydroxy-12-methoxypodocarpa-5,8,11,13-tetraen-7-one (3) and its methyl ether (4) are also examined.
