Synthesis of 25-hydroxycholesterol from bisnoralcohol
25-Hydroxycholesterol not only exhibits various important biological activities but also plays a crucial role in the synthesis of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3. To date, researchers have proposed multiple synthetic routes for 25-hydroxycholesterol. Herein, a novel synthetic method for 25-hydroxycholesterol is described, involving a seven-step reaction that starts from economical and commercially available plant-derived bisnoralcohol, with an overall yield of up to 43.4%. Key reaction conditions, including solvents, reaction temperatures, bases and catalysts, were thoroughly investigated and optimized. This novel synthetic route provides a cost-effective strategy for the potential large-scale production of plant-derived 25-hydroxycholesterol.
期刊介绍:
STEROIDS is an international research journal devoted to studies on all chemical and biological aspects of steroidal moieties. The journal focuses on both experimental and theoretical studies on the biology, chemistry, biosynthesis, metabolism, molecular biology, physiology and pharmacology of steroids and other molecules that target or regulate steroid receptors. Manuscripts presenting clinical research related to steroids, steroid drug development, comparative endocrinology of steroid hormones, investigations on the mechanism of steroid action and steroid chemistry are all appropriate for submission for peer review. STEROIDS publishes both original research and timely reviews. For details concerning the preparation of manuscripts see Instructions to Authors, which is published in each issue of the journal.
