1. At the suggestion of Professor R. Pettit (Arizona State University) we no longer use the descriptor "alkaloids" when referring to the members of the amaryllidaceae family. With the exception of lycorine-type alkaloids none contain a basic nitrogen.

37. The details of the reaction sequence in the "cis series" (i.e., 19 → 28) will be reported in an upcoming full paper in due course. The overall yield of fully hydroxylated derivative 23 via the "cis series" was 2.5-fold more efficient because the problems of elimination to 14 were not encountered in this series.
