title: Synthesis and biological evaluation of phosphonate analogues of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.
abstract: A new series of phosphonate side chain analogues of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1) have been synthesized. Antiproliferative activities of theses analogues (8a,b and 9a,b) using human keratinocyte cell shows that analogues which have natural A-ring show higher activity than unnatural A-ring series and almost equally active to 1alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1) at 1 microM level.
