Abstract:
:Using 3β-hydroxychol-5-en-24-oic acid (4) as starting material, the diastereoisomeric allylic alcohols (24E)-26-hydroxydesmosterol (2) and (24Z)-26-hydroxydesmosterol (3) have been synthesised in six steps with 67% and 12% overall yield, respectively. Both of these isomers are found in newborn mouse brain where sterol synthesis is high. Unlike desmosterol (1), neither of these isomers is a ligand to the liver x receptors and thus represents a novel biological deactivation mechanism avoiding cholesterol synthesis.
