Through appropriate labeling experiments, it was shown that the unusual sterol 3B-(hydroxymethyl)-A-nor-Sa-cholest-15-ene ( 1) is generated by ring contraction of dietary cholesterol followed by the introduction of the 15-16 double bond, rather than by ring contraction of 15-dehydrocholesterol (4).
