| description | Dye-Sensitized photo-oxidation of Squalene in
methanol-benzene (1:4) have been investigated with a view
to obtaining allytic alcohols through an ene-type reaction.
These allylic alcohols can be of significant because t h ey
can undergo cyclizations to give ring systems as has been
demostrated by many other polyene chains with allylic alcohol
functions. Furthermore, since Squalene, through Squalene-2,
3-epoxide, is the precursor in the biosynthesis of cholesterol
it may therefore be possible for the allylic alcohols thus
obtained to undergo biomimetic polyene cyclizations to give
some forms of natural ring systems. |
