A Practical Synthesis of 3β-Amino-5-Cholestene

Article Preview

Abstract:

Derivatives of 3β-amino-5-cholestene are of substantial interest to chemical biologists and have potential medicinal value. A novel and practical method for the preparation of 3β-amino-5-cholestene from inexpensive cholesterol has been developed. To synthesize the epicholesterol intermediate, the KO2 method reported by Corey and coworkers was applied in this synthetic route and solved the problems of the known synthetic route involving epicholesterol intermediate.
