Abstract
The synthesis of novel structures related to naturally occurring cardiotonic agents such as resibufogenin is described. These products retain the essential features of aglycones needed for biological activity. They are, however, thermodynamically stable and easily available from smilagenin. The methods of preparation, together with the proof of structures and configuration, are reported.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
