Abstract: | We have synthesized four new geometric isomers of 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-2-(2'-fluoroethylidene)-19-norvitamin D analogs 1 and 2 having a 20R- and 20S-configuration, whose structures are correlated with 2MD possessing high potencies in stimulating bone formation in vitro and in vivo. The E-isomers of (20R)- and (20S)-2-fluoroethylidene analogs 1a and 1b were comparable with the natural hormone 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3) in binding to the vitamin D receptor (VDR), while two Z-isomers 2a and 2b were about 15-20 times less active than the hormone. In inducing expression of the vitamin D responsive element-based luciferase reporter gene, the E-isomers 1a and 1b were 1.2- and 8.6-fold more potent than the hormone, respectively, while the Z-isomers 2a and 2b had 27-55% of the potency. On the basis of the biological activities and a docking simulation based on X-ray crystallographic analysis of the VDR ligand-binding pocket, the structure-activity relationships of the fluorinated 19-norvitamin D analogs are discussed. |
