4,5-Epoxycholestane-3,6-diols: Templates for generating the full set of eight cholestane-3,5,6-triol stereoisomers in multigram scales, but not for a cholestane-3,4,6-triol
摘要:
Cholestane-3 beta,5 alpha,6 beta-triol is an extensively studied biologically important oxysterol. The full set of eight cholestane-3,5,6-triol stereoisomers was synthesised in diastereomerically pure forms by the stereoselective cleavage of eight diastereomerically pure 4,5-epoxycholestane-3,6-diols with LiAlH4, in high yields on multigram scales and without chromatography for most of them. However, applying various reportedly successful combinations of a hydride donor and a Lewis acid to the same substrates under a variety of conditions failed to generate a single unsubstituted cholestane-3,4,6-triol. The products of the eight cholestane-3,5,6-triol stereoisomers will serve as a good probe in the study of biological functions of oxysterols in a biological process. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc.

solvents, and in the presence of pyridine as ligand. Three new 4,5-epoxy-3,6-dihydroxyl compounds 10, 11, and 12 were isolated from the treatment of diene 4 in CHCl3 at 0 °C, while oxidations of the Δ7,9(11)-diene steroid 13 allowed us to isolate the new monoepoxy and diepoxy steroids 14 and 15 and the new triol 19. The structures of all newsteroids were verified on the basis of chemical evidence and interpretation
Studies on stereocontrolled epoxidations of bis-alicyclic alcohols in steroidal skeletons: preparation of eight diastereomerically pure epoxides from cholest-4-en-3β,6β-; -3β,6α-; -3α,6β- and -3α,6α-diols

Eight diastereomericallypure epoxides have been prepared from cholest-4-en-3β,6β; -3β,6α-; -3α,6β- and -3α,6α-diols via a combination of steric, protecting group and oxidant effects on stereocontrolled epoxidations of a bis-alicyclic alcohol system within the steroidal skeleton.
