title: Non-stereoselective formation of 3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,24-tetrahydroxy-5 beta-cholestan-26-oic acid during cholic acid biosynthesis.
abstract: Incubation of (25RS)-, (25R)- and (25S)-3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholestan-26-oic acid (THCA, 6, 6a, 6b) and (24E)-3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholest-24-en-26-oic acid (7) with rat liver mitochondria gave all four stereoisomers (9a,9b,9c,9d) of 3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,24-Tetrahydroxy-5 beta-cholestan-26-oic acid (TeHCA). The corresponding 27-nor analogs (10,11) were also converted non-stereoselectively to a 1:1 mixture of the epimeric 24-hydroxy compounds (12).
