Abstract A rare case of separable conformational isomers in the 5,10-diketo-5,10-secocardenolide series has been found. Thus, the periodate oxidation of 10β-hydroxy-19-norperiplogenin has given 3β,14β-dihydroxy-5,10-diketocard-19-nor-5,10-seco-20(22)-enolides which in fact consist of a mixture of conformers formed as the result of the inversion of the AB ring. A method for separating the four conformers, their properties, their IR, mass, and PMR spectra, the kinetics of their acetylation reactions, and their heats of transformation are described. Conformational structures as the most probable are put forward on the basis of the experimental results obtained.
