The synthesis of selectively modified A-ring precursors for the preparation of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 analogues by enzymatic hydrolysis reaction of corresponding dicarbonates has been accomplished. Thus, Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) was found to hydrolyze with high selectivity the C-3 carbonate of stereoisomers 4a,b, and 4d, furnishing C-5 vinyloxycarbonates 5a,b, and 5d. On the other hand, Chromobacterium viscosum lipase exhibit opposite regioselectivity with cis enantiomers 4c and 4d, catalyzing hydrolysis at the C-5 carbonate for 4c and at C-3 position for 4d. In addition, CRL catalyzes the alkoxycarbonylation reaction at C-3 of diol 3d affording the monocarbonate complementary to the one obtained by the enzymatic hydrolysis process.
Selective acylation of A-ring precursors of vitamin D using enzymes in organic solvents

Whereas Chromobacterium viscosum lipase (CVL) catalyzes selectively the acylation of the C-5 hydroxyl of the three stereoisomeric vitamin D A-ring precursors 2a, 3a and 3b, only the C-3 hydroxyl of the fourth stereoisomer 2b is acylated under the same conditions in organic solvent. In a convenient application, the racemic vitamin D A-ring precursor 4, possessing only the C-5 hydroxyl, was resolved using suitable conditions identified from the studies of 2 and 3.
Palladium-catalysed coupling of vinyl triflates with enynes and its application to the synthesis of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3

We describe a general approach, based on the palladium-catalysed coupling of enynes with vinyl triflates, for the construction of dienynes related to vitamin D metabolites and analogues. As an application of this method, an efficient convergent synthesis of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 starting from the Inhoffen-Lythgoe diol (6a) and natural carvones has been carried out (11 steps, 28% overall yield from 6a). This strategy allows labelling of the side chain in the final steps of the synthesis.
