29. This labelled compound was available from the study reported in ref. 9. In that study the acetylenic acid moiety of compound 8a was decarboxylated in the presence of cupric chloride (see ref. 27) and it appeared that 12% of the activity was in that carboxyl group. However, it now appears that under the conditions used in that experiment the decarboxylation was not completely selective, because the present results indicate that more than ca. 98% of the activity is in Cl.
