Abstract

Total inversion of the cis-C5 configuration of Maxacalcitol, the unnatural 22-oxa-vitamin D3 analogue used for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism and psoriasis, into the trans-C5 isomer has been accomplished stereoselectively via a formation of the sulforene intermediate for biological evaluation.
