## Abstract Derivatives of calcitriol with two equal side chains emanating at C‐20, also known as gemini, have emerged as interesting compounds, either as instruments for assessing the steric requirements of the vitamin D receptor or as drug candidates. We now describe the syntheses of gemini analo
