Abstract: Synthesis and biological evaluation of all eight possible A-ring diastereomers of 2-methyl-20-epi-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 are described. Among the analogues synthesized. 2 alpha-methyl-20-epi-1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 exhibited exceptionally high potency. The double modification of 2-methyl substitution and 20-epimerization yielded analogues with unique activity profiles.
