6a‐Carbacyclin (1) (X = CH 2 , R = CH(CH 3 )CH 2 CCCH 3 ), a potent vasodilator and inhibitor of blood‐platelet aggregation , exhibits the same activity‐profile and comparable efficacy as prostacyclin, but, in contrast to prostycyclin, is much more stable. It was prepared from the commercially available Corey lactone (2) (R 1 = H) via the bicyclo[3.3.0]octane derivative (3) .
