Popis: The synthesis of C-25 epimers of 26-hydroxycholecalciferol (26-OH-D3) (III)—the so far unknown 25-deoxy analogue of the metabolite 25,26(OH)2D3—is described. (25R)- or (25S)-26-hydroxycholesterol 3,26-diacetate (I) was converted into the corresponding mixture of 5,7- and 4,6-diene, saponified and then directly irradiated with U.V. light. The obtained precholecalci ferol analog was isomerized thermally to III and separated from the 4,6-diene on Sephadex LH 20. Tested for bone resorption in organ cultures from mouse calvaria in vitro, (25R)-26-OH-D3 is less effective than 25,26(OH)2D3, whereas (25S)-26-OH-D3 is inactive. By the in vivo/in vitro method, (25R)and (25S)-26-OH-D3 are ineffective, while 25R,26- and 25S,26(OH)2D3 are moderately osteolytic.
