Synthetic studies of Vitamin D analogues. X. Synthesis and biological activities of 1α,25-dihydroxy-21-norvitamin D3

1α,25-Dihydroxy-21-norvitamin D3 (3) was synthesized from 1α-hydroxydehydroepiandrosterone (4). Certain biological properties of 3 were examined in comparison with those of 1α,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 (1) and 1α,25-dihydroxy-21-nor-20-oxavitamin D3 (2) to evaluate the effect of the 21-methyl substituent on biological activities. The differentiation-inducing activity of 3 towards human myeloid leukemia cells was approximately one-fifth of that of 1, while in the binding affinity with chick intestinal cytosolic receptor, 3 was about one-tenth of that of 1. The rather weak effect of 3 on serum calcium levels in normal mice at a dosage of 500 μg/kg (intravenous administration) indicates that the essential importance of the 21-methyl moiety may lie in its effect on the regulation of calcium metabolism.
