A new, convenient and stereoselective route to the synthesis of (25R)-cholest-5-ene-3 beta,26-diol (1) and its radiolabeled analog 4 is described. The key step is a Julia condensation of sulfone 6 with aldehyde 12 to furnish compound 13. Further reduction of the alpha-hydroxysulfone moiety afforded 22,23-unsaturated i-steroid 14. The double bond was reduced by hydrogen and by tritium to provide substrates for the preparation of 1 and 4, respectively. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
