✦ Synopsis


Vitamin D3 active metabolites 24R,25-(OH)2-D3, 24S,25-(OH)2-D3, and 1 alpha, 24R,25-(OH)3-D3 were synthesized by a convergent and stereoselective approach. In the synthetic route, the stereogenic center at C-24 was generated through ultrasonically induced aqueous conjugate addition of iodide 6 to Seebach's dioxolanone 5, and the vitamin D triene system was constructed using the Lythgoe approach. The synthesis, which is both short (seven steps from iodide 6) and efficient (32-40% overall yield), allows the preparation of large quantities of the metabolites and provides a novel example of a highly stereoselective reaction promoted by the zinc-copper couple in aqueous media.

1␣,25(OH) 2 D 3 is an important negative regulator of parathyroid hormone (PTH) gene transcription. In parathyroid cells, as in other target tissues, 1␣,25(OH) 2 D 3 is degraded by side chain oxidation by the inducible 24-hydroxylase. We have previously shown that one metabolite of this pathway, 1␣,
