“…These values are in good agreement with the spectral data for other cyclopropyl ketones in the literature. 16•17 The nmr spectrum (100 MHz) exhibited signals at 3.31 ppm (3 H, s, -OCH3), 2.75 (2 H, m, -COCHMe2 and -CHOMe), 1.01 (C-19 methyl), 0.67 (C-18 methyl), and 0.3-0.7 (3 H, m, cyclopropyl). The olefinic protons in 16 are no longer present.…”
