An effective purification method for P-sitosterol was developed starting from a commercial source of a phytosterol mixture using preparative adsorption column chromatography. P-Sitosterol (>= 95% purity) was obtained on a gram-scale. Thus, the synthesis of six P-sitosterol oxides, including 7 alpha-hydroxy, 7 beta-hydroxy, 5,6 alpha-epoxy, 5,6 beta-epoxy, 7-keto, and 5 alpha,6 beta-dihydroxysitosterol, were successfully carried out. The spectral characteristics of all the synthetic intermediates and target compounds (similar to 95% purity) were well-documented. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
