Abstract

The disclosure includes novel compounds which differ from the known prostaglandins PGF.sub.2.alpha., PGF.sub.2.beta., PGE.sub.2, PGA.sub.2, and PGB.sub.2 in that the carbon-carbon double bond in the carboxyl-terminated chain of the novel compounds is in the 4,5-position rather than in the 5,6-position, and in that there is a phenyl or substituted phenyl group in the other chain of the novel compounds. These novel compounds are useful for a variety of pharmacological purposes, including abortion, labor induction, and reduction of gastric secretion.
