     The compounds of formula I of the invention may be prepared as described below. ##STR10## 
     As seen in reaction sequence &#34;A&#34;, compounds of the invention where Q is --CH 2  -- or a single bond, p is 1, R is CO 2  alkyl, and R 1  is H, that is ##STR11## are prepared by tosylating the lower alkyl ester containing the hydroxymethyl group, that is, compound II or IIA, (prepared as described in U.S. Pat.

The phthalimide V is then made to undergo selective hydrolysis by dissolving V in methylene chloride and ethanol under an inert atmosphere such as argon and reacting with anhydrous hydrazine to form the amine VI ##STR12## 
     As seen in reaction sequence &#34;A&#39;&#34;, where R 1  is lower alkyl, an alkylation reaction is carried out as in the reference M. J. O&#39;Donnell et al., Tetrahedron Lett. (1984), 25, 3651-3654 to give VIA ##STR13## The amine VI or VIA is then subjected to a sulfonation reaction by reacting VI or VIA with sulfonyl compound VII ##STR14## in the presence of an organic base such as pyridine or triethylamine, under an inert atmosphere, such as argon, employing a molar ratio of VI:VII of within the range of from about 1:1 to about 1:3, to form the amide ester compound of the invention IA or IA&#39; ##STR15##

Thus, to form aldehyde III where A is --CH═CH--, compound II is subjected to a Collins oxidation, for example, by reacting II with chromium trioxide in pyridine. To form the aldehyde IIIA (where A is --(CH 2 ) 2  --) compound II is reduced, for example, with hydrogen over a palladium on carbon catalyst, to form hydroxymethyl compound IIA (where A is (CH 2 ) 2 ) and compound IIA is subjected to a Collins oxidation to form aldehyde IIIA (where A is (CH 2 ) 2 ). The aldehyde III or IIIA is used to prepare aldehyde IX (where p is 2-5) by carrying out a homologation sequence, such as a Wittig reaction with (C 6  H 5 ) 3  P═CHOMe followed by hydrolysis, (p-1) times. The aldehyde IX (where p is 2-5) is then carried on to compounds of this invention where p is 2-5, that is ##STR17## by reducing aldehyde IX by reacting with a reducing agent such as sodium borohydride to form alcohol IXA ##STR18## tosylating alcohol IXA as described above to form the tosylate X which is subjected to a displacement reaction with potassium phthalimide as described above to form the phthalimide XI.

Aldehyde XIV is then subjected to a Wittig (2) procedure wherein XIV is reacted with a carboxyalkyltriphenylphosphonium halide, such as carboxypentyltriphenylphosphonium bromide, to form hydroxymethyl compound XV. Compound XV is esterified, for example, by reacting with diazomethane, to form ester XVI which is then employed in place of compound II in reaction scheme &#34;A&#34; to form compound IC of the invention.

Aldehyde XVII is then subjected to the Wittig (2) procedure to form acid XVIII which is esterified to form ester XIX which is then employed in place of compound II in reaction scheme &#34;A&#34; to form compound IE of the invention. 
     As seen in reaction sequence &#34;F&#34;, compounds of the invention wherein m is 3 or 4, A is CH 2  CH 2 , p is 1 and Q is CH 2  or a single bond may be prepared by reducing hydroxymethyl compound XIX to form compound XIXA which is then employed in place of compound II in reaction scheme &#34;A&#34; to form compound IF of the invention.

     A. [1S-(1β,2α,3α,4β)]-3-[3-Hydroxymethyl)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl]propionaldehyde 
     A slurry of methoxymethyltriphenylphosphonium chloride (1.09 kg, 3.18 mol) in Burdick and Jackson sieve-dried tetrahydrofuran (3 liters) was chilled to 0° C. and treated dropwise with 1.4M potassium t-amylate in toluene (1910 ml, 2.67 mol) over 20 minutes. The resultant dark red solution was stirred at 0° C. for 1 hour. The mixture was then treated slowly over 5 minutes with solid hemiacetal (XIII in reaction sequence C) prepared as described in Example 3 of U.S. Pat. No. 4,143,054 (200 g, 1.28 mol). The temperature gradually rose to 23° C. The mixture was stirred vigorously at room temperature for 90 minutes. The reaction mixture was then chilled to 0° C. and treated slowly with acetaldehyde (124 ml, 2.2 mol) over 10 minutes. The mixture was diluted with water (2500 ml) and treated with 10% hydrochloric acid to pH 7. The mixture was then extracted with ether (7×2 liters). The combined ether extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and the filtrates concentrated in vacuo. The resultant mixture was treated with isopropyl ether (4 liters) and stirred overnight. The mixture was chilled to -10° C. for 90 minutes then filtered. The solids were washed thoroughly with isopropyl ether. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to an oily residue (460 g). This oily residue was treated with water (4000 ml) and stirred vigorously for 2 hours. The aqueous layer was decanted and the oily residue treated two additional times with water (2×1 liter). After the third wash, the residue solidified and was filtered. The combined aqueous triturates were concentrated in vacuo to 3.5 liters. The cloudy mixture was filtered through a bed of Celite. The filtrate was concentrated again to a volume of 2.3 liters. The cloudly solution was chilled in an ice bath and treated slowly with concentrated hydrochloric acid (683 ml). The mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. After this time the solution was neutralized by the slow addition of solid sodium bicarbonate (720 g). The mixture was filtered through a bed of Celite then extracted with hexane (4×2 liters) then ethyl acetate (10×2 liters). The combined ethyl acetate extracts were dried over MgSO 4  and concentrated in vacuo. The solid residue was triturated with hexane (1 liter), filtered, and dried in vacuo to yield 220 g (100%) of desired compound (hemiacetal F in reaction sequence C), m.p. 104°-105° C., [α] D  =+27° c=1 MeOH. 
     TLC: Silica gel; EtOAc; R f  =0.3; Ce(SO 4 ) 2 .

     B. [1S-[1β,2α(Z),3α,4β]]-8-[3-Hydroxymethyl)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]-hept-2-yl]-5-octenoic acid, methyl ester 
     A Wittig reagent was prepared in dimethyl sulfoxide (dried over calcium hydride) by adding a solution of sodium methylsulfinylmethide (prepared by heating 600 mg of sodium hydride in 60 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide at 75° until hydrogen evolution stops) dropwise to a solution of 5.32 g (12 mmole) of 4-carboxybutyl triphenylphosphonium bromide in 100 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide. After the first orange color lasting more than 10 seconds formed, an equivalent amount of base was added to form the ylide. To this deep orange solution was added a solution of Part A aldehyde 1.02 g (6 mmole) in 20 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide and the resulting mixture stirred at room temperature for 45 minutes. The reaction was quenched by addition of 24 mmole of acetic acid and the mixture poured into brine (300 ml) and extracted with ether (3×200 ml). Concentration of these extracts gave an oil which was stirred with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution until crystalline triphenylphosphine oxide formed in the mixture. This mixture was washed with benzene and acidified with 10% hydrochloric acid. The aqueous layer was saturated with salt and extracted with ether which on drying (sodium sulfate) and concentration gave 2.43 g of crude product. The mixture was stirred 24 hours with 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide and reisolated by acidification and ether extraction. The product was purified on 70 g of silica gel with 50/50 ethyl acetate-hexane as the eluant which gave 1.1 g of acid. This was treated with diazomethane (CH 2  N 2 ) in Et 2  O to give the title compound.
