Abstract
7alpha-Hydroxy derivatives of oxysterols are of considerable interest because of their possible involvement in regulation of cholesterol metabolism. This paper describes stereoselective syntheses and complete characterization of the 7alpha-hydroxy derivatives of four key oxysterols: 25-hydroxycholesterol, 27-hydroxycholesterol, 24(S)-hydroxycholesterol, and 24(S), 25-epoxycholesterol.
