SYNTHESIS OF 5-FLUORO-PRGSTAGLANDINS

Abstract
(5E)- And (5Z)-5-fluoro-prostaglandin(PG)F methyl esters 1 and 2 were synthesized via decarboxylative elimination reaction from key intermediate α-fluoro-β-hydroxy ester 7. 5-Fluoro-6-keto-PGE1 methyl ester 3 was also synthesized from the key intermediate 7. These 5-fluoro-PGs 1, 2 and 3 showed interesting biological properties.
