摘要：Described herein are the chemical syntheses of a number of deuterated derivatives of 5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-3 beta-ol-15-one. These include the [2,2,3 alpha,4,4,7,7,9 alpha,16,16-2H10]-, [7 alpha,9 alpha,16,16-2H4]-, [7,7,9 alpha,16,16-2H5]-, and [2,2,3 alpha,4,4-2H5]-analogs of the delta 8(14)-15-ketosterol. Also included are the syntheses of the 3 beta-acetate derivatives of the latter three deuterated analogs and of 5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-3 beta-ol-15-one, and 5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-3 alpha-ol-15-one. Low resolution mass spectral data on these compounds and on 5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-15-one, 5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-3 beta-ol-15-one, 5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-3 alpha-ol-15-one, 3 beta-benzoyloxy-5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-15-one, and the trimethylsilyl ethers of the free sterols have been presented. The results of these studies, supplemented with high resolution mass spectral data on five of these compounds, have been used to evaluate the electron impact mass spectral fragmentation of the delta 8(14)-15-ketosterols and their derivatives. Also presented herein are the results of 1H, 2H, and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance studies of 5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-3 beta-ol-15-one and its derivatives.
