Abstract

Three 23-hydroxylated vitamin D 3 derivatives, which are metabolites of 25-hydroxyvitamin D 3 produced by CYP24A1 and a related diastereomer, were efficiently synthesized. Each C23 hydroxy unit was constructed by the Claisen condensation reaction with ethyl acetate or the Grignard reaction with 2-methylallymagnesium chloride. Stereochemistry at the C23 position was determined by a modified Mosher's method. The triene structures were constructed by the Wittig-Horner reaction utilizing the A-ring phosphine oxide moiety.
