Abstract
An improved synthetic route to 1α,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D~3~ des‐side chain analogues 2 a and 2 b with substituents at C18 is reported, along with their biological activity. These analogues display significant antiproliferative effects toward MCF‐7 breast cancer cells and prodifferentiation activity toward SW480‐ADH colon cancer cells; they are also characterized by a greatly decreased calcemic profile. The crystal structure of the human vitamin D receptor (hVDR) complexed to one of these analogues, 20(17→18)‐abeo‐1α,25‐dihydroxy‐22‐homo‐21‐norvitamin D~3~ (2 a) reveals that the side chain introduced at position C18 adopts the same orientation in the ligand binding pocket as the side chain of 1α,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D~3~.
