Abstract

Novel vitamin D receptor (VDR) antagonists, 1α-hydroxy-24-phenylvitamin D 3 -26,23-lactones were synthesized by Trost's methodology.The biological evaluation revealed that both the binding affinity for VDR and antagonistic activity were affected by the orientation of the phenyl group on the lactone ring.The modification of the 2α-position of the 24-phenylvitamin D 3 lactones improved the antagonistic activity up to 41 times higher than that of TEI-9647.
