Functionalization of unactivated carbons in 3α,6- and 3α,24-dihydroxy-5β-cholane derivatives by dimethyldioxirane
Direct remote functionalization of unactivated carbons by dimethyldioxirane (DMDO) was examined for 3α,6- and 3α,24-dihydroxy-5β-cholane derivatives. DMDO oxidation of stereoisomeric methyl 3α,6-diacetoxy-5β-c...

Biomimetic oxidation of unactivated carbons in steroids by a model of cytochrome P-450, oxorutheniumporphyrinate complex
Biomimetic oxidation of unactivated carbons for structurally different steroids was studied with a model of cytochrome P-450, oxorutheniumporphyrinate complex, which is generated in situ by 2,6-dichloropyridine N

Lupane triterpenes with a carbonyl group at C-20 induce cancer cell apoptosis
We evaluated the effects of various lupane triterpenes on B16 2F2 mouse melanoma cell differentiation and proliferation. All of the compounds tested (numbered 1–6) induced melanogenesis of B16 2F2 cells, a marker...

Stereoselective Synthesis and NMR Characterization of C-24 Epimeric Pairs of 24-Alkyl Oxysterols
Two pairs of C-24 epimeric (24R)-/(24S)-24-hydroxy-24-methyl-5α-cholestan-3β-yl acetates and (24R)-/(24S)-25-hydroxy-24-methyl-5α-cholestan-3β-yl acetates as well as some related 24-ethyl oxysterol analogs were s...
