• Beschreibung

  Doxercalciferol is a synthetic vitamin D2 analog introduced in the US as Hectorol for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients with end-stage renal failure. It is actually 1-alpha-hydroxyvitamin D2 (one-alpha- D2) and can be synthesized by direct hydroxylation of vitamin D2 tosylate or in 5 steps from ergosterol. Doxercalciferol itself is inactive until metabolized by the liver into active 1,24-dihydroxyvitamin D2, showing a pharmacokinetic profile similar to calcitriol. During placebo-controlled clinical trials, patients with moderate to severe SHPT were treated with 1-alpha-D2 (10 μg doses) for 16 to 24 weeks; in 9 patients out of 10, blood levels of parathyroid hormone were considerably reduced, so maintaining a good control of the parathyroid hyperplasia. Moreover, only a moderate tendency to raise calcium and phosphate was observed. Doxercalciferol is orally-active and less toxic than other vitamin D analogs like alfacalcidol; it shows differentially controlled effects and has an improved safety profile compared to calcitriol.

• Definition

  ChEBI: Doxercalciferol is a hydroxy seco-steroid and synthetic vitamin D2 analogue that undergoes metabolic activation in vivo to form 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 (1alpha,25-(OH)2D2), a naturally occurring, biologically active form of vitamin D2. It is used to treat secondary hyperparathyroidism, a condition in which the body produces excess parathyroid hormone (PTH; a natural substance needed to control the amount of calcium in the blood) in certain people with chronic kidney disease. It has a role as a provitamin, a bone density conservation agent and a prohormone. It is a vitamin D and a hydroxy seco-steroid.

• Manufacturing Process

  Isoergosterone (m.p. 105-106°C) was prepared from ergosterol by the method described in Shepherd et al., J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 77, 1212 (1955). To a solution of isoergosterone in 80 ml t-butanol and 1 ml acetic acid, 1.5 g SeO2 were added, and the mixture was refluxed under nitrogen for 16 hours. The solvent was then evaporated in vacuo, the residue was redissolved in 150 ml ethanol and 7 ml of 28% aqueous (NH4)2S was added. This solution was refluxed for 1.5 hours and then kept at room temperature overnight. After evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure and addition of CHCl3 the resulting slurry was filtered through a short Al2O3-column to remove the Se powder. Concentration of the filtrate and separation of the products on a silicic acid column gave ca. 1.5 g (30% yield) of 1,4,6,25-ergostatetraen-3-one of satisfactory purity which was identified by the spectral dates.
  To a solution of 1.5 g of the 1,4,6,25-ergostatetraen-3-one in 200 ml MeOH and 50 ml dioxane, 1 ml 10% NaOH and 6 ml 30% H2O2 were added. The reaction mixture was kept at room temperature overnight. The solvent wasthen evaporated under reduced pressure, and the product that separated was collected by suction filtration, washed with water and dried in vacuo. The solid obtained was redissolved in CHCl3 and applied to a column of 100 g silicic acid prepared in CHCl3. Elution with CHCl2 gave 1.2 g (77%)of 1α,2α-epoxy- 4,6,22-ergostatnene-3-one which, upon crystallization from methanol/acetone yielded material having the melting point 143°-145°C.
  A solution of 600 mg of the epoxide in 70 ml freshly distilled THF was added (all at once) to 70 ml liquid ammonia containing 2 g of 30% lithium dispersion. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 10 min and then 15 g NH4Cl was added in small portions over a 20 min. After evaporation of the ammonia, water was added, and the mixture was extracted with ether. The ether layer was dried over Na2SO4, evaporated, and the residue was applied to a 120 g silicic acid column poured as a slurry in 20% ether in Skellysolve B. The column was eluted with 100 ml of 20% ether in Skellysolve B (straight run aliphatic naphthas (essentially normal hexane) derived from petroleum oil having a boiling range of 60-68°C, (marketed by Skelly Oil Co.) followed by 250 ml of 50%, and 250 ml of 70% ether in Skellysolve B and finally with 250 ml of ether, 250 ml of 20%, ethyl acetate in ether and 200 ml of 50% ethyl acetate in ether. 12 ml fractions were collected. Crystallization of the material in tubes 69-90 (200 mg) from Skellysolve B and ethyl acetate gave the dihydroxy compound, 1α-hydroxy-7,8-dihydroergosterol having the melting point 180-182°C.
  200 mg of the 1α-hydroxy-7,8-dihydroergosterol was acetylated by dissolving in pyridine (10 ml) and acetic anhydride (10 ml). The acetylation was done at 80°C for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was extracted with diethylether and H2O (pH 4 with H2SO4). The ether phase was collected and the aqueous phase was extracted twice with diethylether and dried under nitrogen gas. The collected material was subjected to silicic acid column chromatography and 130 mg (54% yield) of the diacetate, 1α-acetoxy-7,8-dihydroergosteryl acetate was recovered.
  To 100 mg of the 1α-acetoxy-7,8-dihydroergosteryl acetate dissolved in 6 ml Skellysolve B, at 70°C, 4.3 mg of N,N'-dibromodimethylhydantoin was added. The solution was refluxed with stirring for 15 min, then cooled in an ice bath and filtered. The filtrate was taken up in 2 ml xylene and added dropwise to a solution of 0.2 ml trimethylphosphite and 1 ml xylene preheated to 135°C. The reaction mixture was kept at 135-140°C for 2 hours. After evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure the residue was chromatographed on AgNO3-impregnated silicic acid. Elution with 5% ether in Skellysolve B gave ca. 10 mg (10% yield) of 1α-hydroxyergosteryl diacetate.
  A solution of 4 mg of the 1α-hydroxyergosteryl diacetate in 200 ml ether was irradiated (Ha
