Hydrogenation of nepenthone ( 3a ) leads to a mixture of dihydronepenthone ( 3c ) and the secondary alcohol (20 S )‐ 4b . The enantiomeric secondary alcohol (20 S )‐ 4b is prepared from the 7α‐formyl‐6,14‐ethenomorphinan derivative 3b by reaction with phenylmagnesium bromide to afford a mixture of the diastereoisomeric alcohols 4a . Hydrogenation of 4a leads to (20 S )‐ 4b and (20 R )‐ 4b , which are separated by fractional crystallization. The conformations of (20 S )‐ 4b and (20 R )‐ 4b are determined by NOE difference experiments.
