Abstract

The research of oxygenated sterols, oxysterols, has been moving on from their original chemical structures and total syntheses to their diverse biological activities and their potential medical usage. However, due to the availability in amounts and in kinds of isomers with desired oxygenated groups attached at preferred positions with desired stereochemistry, the research has been hindered greatly...
