Abstract
Novel methods are disclosed for transforming PGA.sub.2 and 15.beta.-PGA.sub.2 and their acetates, methyl esters, and acetate methyl esters to various prostanoic acids and esters of the PGE.sub.2 and PGF.sub.2.sub..alpha. series. Some of the latter are novel and are useful for the same pharmacological purposes as PGE.sub.2 and PGF.sub.2.sub..alpha..
