Title: Influence of the Position of Ring Unsaturation in Steroids and Triterpenes on the Type and Formation of Mesophases. I: Influence of the Δ<sup>8</sup>Double Bond

All these compounds possess a Δ8 double bond to which the inhibition of mesophase formation is attributed. In the case of tirucallol the steric inversion of the side chain and the angular methyl groups at C13 and C14 may or may not be additional pmameters.Read More
