A major metabolite of vitamin D3 was recently isolated and identified as 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone.To determine the configurations at C-23 and C-25 positions, the four stereoisomers were synthesized by stereoselective lactonization method.The two 23R-isomers were obtained by iodolactonization of 22,23-trans-26-acid, and the two 23S-isomers were synthesized by selenolactonization of 22,23-cis-26-acid.The four synthetic isomers and the naturally produced lactone were co-chromatographed on a high performance liquid chromatographic system capable of separating the four isomers.The natural lactone comigrated with synthetic (23S,25R)-isomer determining its structure as (23S,25R)-25-hydroxyvitamin D3-26,23-lactone.

The four possible stereoisomers of a new metabolite of vitamin D3, 25-hydroxycholecalciferol-26,23-lactone, have been synthesized; we establish that the natural product has the 23R,25S stereochemistry, and that it has 1percent of the activity of vitamin D3 in bringing about intestinal calcium absorption.
