Eldecalcitol [1α,25-dihydroxy-2β-(3-hydroxypropoxy)vitamin D3, developing code: ED-71] is an analog of active vitamin D3, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] that possesses a hydroxypropoxy substituent at the 2β-position of 1,25(OH)2D3. Eldecalcitol has potent biological effects on bone and is now in preparation for approval as a promising medicine for the treatment of osteoporosis in Japan. To explore chemical structure-biological activity relationships between eldecalcitol and related analogs, we have already synthesized 1-epi-eldecalcitol, 3-epi-eldecalcitol, and 1,3-diepi-eldecalcitol with inherent biological interests of each targeted analog and evaluated their biological responses. It has been reported that 20-epi-1,25(OH)2D3, a diastereomer of 1,25(OH)2D3 that possesses an inverted methyl substituent at the 20-position of the side chain, shows remarkably enhanced biological activities compared to parental compound, 1,25(OH)2D3. As a continuation of our modification studies on eldecalcitol, we took great interest in 20-epi-eldecalcitol and its biological responses. In this paper, the synthesis of 20-epi-eldecalcitol by the Trost coupling reaction between the A-ring fragment and the C/D-ring fragment as well as in vitro preliminary biological evaluation of 20-epi-eldecalcitol are described. In the induction of human myeloid leukemia cell (HL-60) differentiation, inhibition of the human histiocytic lymphoma cell (U937) proliferation, and increase in osteocalcin concentration in the human osteosarcoma cell (MG-63), 20-epi-eldecalcitol showed significantly enhanced activity compared to eldecalcitol.

We developed a very efficient and practical method for the large-scale synthesis of a trans-hydrindan derivative related to vitamin D, based on the Criegee rearrangement. This ketone is a valuable synthon for the preparation of Gemini-type vitamin D analogues or other calcitriol analogues modified at C-20, C-21 or the D-ring. Our methodology is superior to those previously reported when considering efficiency and expediency. The Criegee rearrangement was the key step for a large-scale synthesis of a trans-hydrindan derivative related to vitamin D. This work is superior to previous approaches with regards to efficiency and expediency. Copyright

As an extension of previously conducted studies on developing an anti-Alzheimer's disease agent, denosomin (1-deoxy-24-norsominone, an artificial inducer of neurite elongation), derivatives were designed and synthesized based on the hypothesis that our denosomin would exhibit axonal extension activity via a 1,25D3-membrane-associated, rapid response steroid-binding protein (1,25D3-MARRS) pathway. The biological assay revealed that the hybridization of characteristic δ-lactone in denosomin and the triene moiety in VD3 was effective to enhance the nerve re-extension activity in amyloid β (Aβ)-damaged neurons.
