| dc.description.abstract | Chapter 1 consists of a review of the role of squalene oxide in the biogenesis of triterpenoids and steroids via lanosterol. A number of non-enzymic methods of inducing such cyclisations under various conditions is also presented with greater emphasis on the more successful techniques. Chapter 2 starts with a review of the classical route to the synthesis of 2-alkylcyclohexenones via alkylation of Hagemann's ester. This is followed by a series of reactions carried out by the author leading to a novel synthetic route to the 2-alkylcyclohexenones, which is shown to be much better than the former route. A review of the Lewis acid induced cyclisation of epoxyolefins already carried out by a number of workers in our Laboratories is also presented followed by the cyclisations of epoxyolefins and alpha, Beta -unsaturated ketones carried out by the author. It is hereby demonstrated that formation of bi-, tri- and tetra- cyclic systems are feasible under suitable conditions. Chapter 3 consists of the experimental work of reactions mentioned in Chapter 2. | en_US |
