Abstract
Side-chain elongation of active vitamin D3 is acknowledged as a structural modification to enhance its cell differentiation activity; however, the comprehensive structure-activity relationship (SAR) as a result of this modification has not been reported. To clarify the SAR, we synthesized six analogs systematically elongated at the 24-position, 26,27-position, or both by methylene (normal A-ring series 1a-f) in a facile parallel solution-phase synthesis. Using parallel synthesis, we expanded the side chain-elongation study into two 19-exomethylene analog series: 19-nor-A-ring (4a-f) and 2-methylene-19-nor-A-ring (5a-f). In the 19-nor-A-ring analog series, the SAR induced by side-chain elongation was similar to the normal A-ring analog series, but in the 2-methylene-19-nor-A-ring series, the SAR was unique.
