Abstract
Our research regarding side-chain fluorinated vitamin D3 analogues has explored a series of efficient fluorination methods. In this study, a new electrophilic stereo-selective fluorination methodology at C24 and C22 positions of the vitamin D3 side-chain was developed using N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI) and CD-ring imides with an Evans chiral auxiliary (26,27,30).

Abstract
The discovery of a large variety of functions of vitamin D3 and its metabolites has led to the design and synthesis of a vast amount of vitamin D3 analogues in order to increase the potency and reduce toxicity. The introduction of highly electronegative fluorine atom(s) into vitamin D3 skeletons alters their physical and chemical properties. To date, many fluorinated vitamin D3 analogues have been designed and synthesized. This review summarizes the molecular structures of fluoro-containing vitamin D3 analogues and their synthetic methodologies.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 metabolites inhibit the expression of lipogenic genes by impairing sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP), a master transcription factor of lipogenesis, independent of their canonical activity through a vitamin D receptor (VDR). Herein, we designed and synthesized a series of vitamin D derivatives to search for a drug-like small molecule that suppresses the SREBP-induced lipogenesis without affecting the VDR-controlled calcium homeostasis in vivo. Evaluation of the derivatives in cultured cells and mice led to the discovery of VDR-silent SREBP inhibitors and to the development of KK-052 (50), the first vitamin D-based SREBP inhibitor that has been demonstrated to mitigate hepatic lipid accumulation without calcemic action in mice. KK-052 maintained the ability of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 to induce the degradation of SREBP but lacked in the VDR-mediated activity. KK-052 serves as a valuable compound for interrogating SREBP/SCAP in vivo and may represent an unprecedented translational opportunity of synthetic vitamin D analogues.

Abstract
During our ongoing studies of vitamin D, we focused on the vitamin D3 side-chain 24-position, which is the major metabolic site of human CYP24A1. In order to inhibit the metabolism of vitamin D3, 24,24-difluorovitamin D3analogues are important candidates. In this paper, we report the practical introduction of the difluoro-unit to the 24-position to synthesize 24,24-difluoro-CD ring (1) and 24,24-difluoro-25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (2).
