Synthesis of [D4]- and [D7]-4β- hydroxycholesterols for use in a novel drug-drug interaction assay

Cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) enzymes are involved in the metabolism of over half of today's prescription drugs. As a result, drugs metabolized by CYP3A have a risk of drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Recent studies have shown the potential to use 4β-hydroxych

Stereochemistry of the Reduction of 3β-Benzoyloxycholest-5-en-4-one with Sodium Borohydride

Reduction of 3β-benzoyloxycholest-5-en-4-one (3) with sodium borohydride under various conditions affords only minor amounts of 3β-benzoyloxycholest-5-en-4β-ol (2a).The major product is the 4α-isomer (6).Using sodium borodeuteride it has been shown that t
