Design and Synthesis of a 1α,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 Dimer as a Potential Chemical Inducer of Vitamin D Receptor Dimerization
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]A dimer comprising two 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 units linked by an alkyl side chain at C-11 was synthesized with a view to the simultaneous binding of two vitamin D receptor (VDR) molecules and the consequent induction of VDR dimerization, The short, convergent synthesis uses a stereoselective cuprate addition to introduce the linking side chain and a key ruthenium olefin metathesis as the dimerization step.
