According to a known procedure, 9(—)-(ß)--methyl-e-caprolactone was obtained by repeated lowtemperature fractional crystallization of the mixture of-and/3-methyl-e-caprolactones resulting from the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of (+)-(/Z)-3-methylcyclo-hexanone (optical purity, 100%). Careful alkaline hydrolysis of the (-)-(R)--methyl-e-caprolactone and subsequent oxidation with an excess of potassium permanganate produced (—)-(7Z)--methyladipic acid which agreed in sign and magnitude of rotationwith the (—) acid of degradation. A convincing assignment of the relative configuration and conformation of (—)-deoxynupharidine has been made on the basis of synthetic methods and infrared studies. 10*· 11Supporting evidence for the presence of one axial and one equatorial methyl group was furnished by an early nmr study, 4a and a specific stereochemical assignment of methyl groups was made possible later by the transformation of nupharamine to deoxynuphari-dine and 7-epideoxynupharidine. 12 Since the 7 epimer was shown by nmr to have two equatorial methyl groups, deoxynupharidine must have Ci equatorial and C7 axial methyl groups. This stereochemistry is also demonstrated through examination of the C6 protons in the 100 MHz nmr of deoxynupharidine. Both H6a (7.30 r) and 0 (3 (8.12 r) signals are identical quartets. The H6a quartet arises from geminal (12.5 Hz) and equatorial-equatorial (6a-7/3) coupling (Je, e= 2.5 Hz), while the He (s quartet arises from geminal (12.5 Hz) and
