The synthesis of diazo, halo, and sulfoxy bile acid derivatives: potential affinity labels.
Bile acid derivatives, with and without C-3 sulfate groups, and having either the diazo- or halomethylketone moieties, have been synthesized in good yield and purity. The synthetic sequence, COOH leads to COC1 leads to COCHN2 leads to COCH2X, was used with deoxycholic and cholic acids, which requires carefully controlled quench, work-up, and purification procedures, especially for the 3-sulfate esters (made from deoxycholic acid derivatives only). The pure title compounds are anticipated to be useful chemical probes (affinity labels), especially the completely water soluble sulfates, toward our studies of ileal active transport of bile salts. A new use for Sephadex LH-20 as a sulfate ester protecting group is reported. Also developed were the use of acetamide hydrochloride complex as a mild hydrochlorination reagent and a neutral desalting method for sulfate esters of deoxycholic acid derivatives.
