Abstract: | The epimer of ergosterol at C-24 was formed by the metabolism of 24α-methyl-cholesterol in the protozoan, . This is the first time 24-epiergosterol has been obtained in any manner. Its n.m.r. spectrum at 220 MHz was distinguishable from that of ergosterol. From the primitive tracheophyte, L., a 24-methyl-Δ5,7,22-sterol was isolated which proved to be ergosterol possibly containing its C-24 epimer as a minor constituent. |
