Using 1 alpha,2 alpha-oxido-cholesta-5,7-diene-3 beta,25-diol (2) as a starting material, the provitamins of calcitriol with an additional 2 beta-chloro-, 2 beta-fluoro-, and 2 beta-methoxy-substituent (3,4,5) are obtained by transdiaxial opening of the oxirane ring with nucleophiles. An efficient irradiation process is described and used for the synthesis of the 2 beta-substituted calcitriols NS2 (2 beta-Cl), NS6 (2 beta-F), and NS7 (2 beta-OCH3). The affinity of these three vitamin D3 derivatives to the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and was determined. These three A-ring derivatives of 1,25(OH)2D3 were further tested for their proliferation-inhibitory and anti-adipogenic activity and gene regulatoric activity in the vitamin D3-sensitive, murine, mesenchymal cell line C3H10T1/2. The VDR-affinity of the 2 beta-chloro derivative, NS2 (2 beta-Cl), was identical to 1,25(OH)2D3 and its vitamin D binding protein (DBP)-affinity was in the range of 1,25(OH)2D3. NS2 inhibited the proliferation of C3H10T1/2(BMP-4)-cells in the presence of fetal calf serum (FCS) 9 times, and, in the absence of FCS, 111 times lower, as compared with 1,25(OH)2D3. The ID50 dose of adipogenesis-inhibition of NS2 was 13 times higher than the ID50 dose of 1,25(OH)2D3. NS6 (2 beta-F) displayed a slightly higher affinity than 1,25(OH)2D3 to the VDR and DBP-affinity. The proliferation-inhibitory activity in the presence of FCS was 90 times higher, as compared with 1,25(OH)2D3. In the FCS-free proliferation assay NS6 displayed an inhibitory activity in the range of 1,25(OH)2D3. NS6 showed an 5 times higher potency to inhibit (pre)adipocyte-differentiation in C3H10T1/2(BMP-4)-cells than 1,25(OH)2D3. NS7 (2 beta-OCH3) showed the lowest VDR-affinity and the highest DBP-affinity of the tested substances, as compared with 1,25(OH)2D3 (11 times lower and 35 times higher respectively). Its proliferation-inhibitory activity in the FCS-free medium was 9 times and in the FCS-containing assay 67 times lower in comparison with 1,25(OH)2D3. A 1250 times higher NS7-dose was needed to reach the anti-adipogenic potency of 1,25(OH)2D3. All tested substances displayed a similar ability to activate a vitamin D responsive element-regulated reporter gene compared to 1,25(OH)2D3 (NS2 and NS6: 1.3 times higher activity; NS7: 1,4 times lower activity).

D002117	Calcitriol	The physiologically active form of vitamin D. It is formed primarily in the kidney by enzymatic hydroxylation of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (CALCIFEDIOL). Its production is stimulated by low blood calcium levels and parathyroid hormone. Calcitriol increases intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphorus, and in concert with parathyroid hormone increases bone resorption.	1 alpha,25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol,1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1, 25-(OH)2D3,1,25(OH)2D3,1,25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol,1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1 alpha, 25-dihydroxy-20-epi-Vitamin D3,1,25(OH)2-20epi-D3,1,25-dihydroxy-20-epi-Vitamin D3,20-epi-1alpha,25-dihydroxycholecaliferol,Bocatriol,Calcijex,Calcitriol KyraMed,Calcitriol-Nefro,Decostriol,MC-1288,MC1288,Osteotriol,Renatriol,Rocaltrol,Silkis,Sitriol,Soltriol,Tirocal,1 alpha,25 Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1,25 Dihydroxycholecalciferol,1,25 Dihydroxyvitamin D3,1,25 dihydroxy 20 epi Vitamin D3,Calcitriol Nefro,D3, 1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin,D3, 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin,D3, 1,25-dihydroxy-20-epi-Vitamin,KyraMed, Calcitriol,MC 1288
