A novel synthesis of a radioactive compound of 1α-hydroxyvitamin D3 (1αOHD3) (1) and its pharmacokinetics are described. Radioactive 1αOHD3 tritiated at 22 and 23 positions ([22,23-3H4]1αOHD3) (5) was prepared via key reactions of the reduction of acetylenic side chain in the ketone (12) with tritium gas in the presence of palladium-charcoal and the subsequent Wittig reaction with the A-ring synthon (16). [22,23-3H4]1αOHD3 (5) showed high specific radioactivity (111.5 Ci/mmol) and was used successfully in pharmacokinetics studies with rats. In the pharmacokinetics studies, the plasma concentration level of the active form of vitamin D3, 1α,25- dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1α,25(OH)2D3], after oral or intravenous administration of [22,23-3H4]1αOHD3 (5), showed longer half-life, lower maximum concentration, and lower area under the curve than those after treatment of 1α,25(OH)2D3 tritiated at 26 and 27 positions (4). These results might suggest a beneficial therapeutic utility of 1αOHD1 (1) over the treatment of 1α,25(OH)2D3 (2).

A new synthesis of 1α-hydroxyvitamin D3 is described.The bis-t-butyldimethylsilyl ether (17) of (3S,5R)-3,5-dihydroxy-2-methylcyclohex-1-enecarbaldehyde and 8-p-tolylsulphonylmethyl-des-AB-cholest-8-ene (4) were combined to give mixed benzoyloxysulphones which, on reductive elimination with sodium amalgam, gave the corresponding bis-ether of 1α-hydroxytachysterol3.This was isomerised photochemically to the bis-ether of 1α-hydroxyprecalciferol3, and then thermally to give the bis-ether of 1α-hydroxyvitamin D3.Removal of protecting groups gave 1α-hydroxyvitamin D3 (21) in 62percent yield from the sulphone (4), or 12.8percent overall from cholesterol.
