SummaryThe octahydroindenone intermediate was tritium labeled using T 2 O isotope exchange labeling, and then elaborated to the vitamin D derivative RO275646. Though this method of labeling was expected to give the minor isomer, it was the shortest and most convenient route to the high specific activity metabolically stable labeled sites. A total of 34 mCi (from two separate runs) at 64 Ci/mmol of [ 3 H]-RO275646 were prepared by this method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
