Abstract

Our interest in the stereoselective reduction of the carbonyl groups of various oxymorphone derivatives with formamidinesulfinic acid (FSA) led to a result indicating that dihydrocodeinone underwent ring-oxygen scission under the conditions of reduction with this reagent. This observation4 has prompted interest and speculation as to the scope and mechanism of this reaction by others, as well as ourselves
