N2 - Four new 19-norvitamin D3 analogs, 2α-[3-(tetrazol-1-yl)propyl]-, 2β-[3-(tetrazol-1-yl)propyl]-, 2α-[3-(tetrazol-2-yl)propyl]-, and 2β-[3-(tetrazol-2-yl)propyl]-1α,25-dihydroxy-19-norvitamin D3 were synthesized. Among them, 2α-[3-(tetrazol-1-yl)propyl]-1α,25-dihydroxy-19-norvitamin D3 showed weak binding affinity for vitamin D receptor (VDR) (2.6% of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3: ca. 15% of 1α,25-dihydroxy-19-norvitamin D3) and weak VDR transactivation activity in human osteosarcoma cells, which was determined by luciferase assays (EC50 7.3 nM, when 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 0.23 nM). Although the other three compounds could not act as VDR binders by evaluation of the competition assays, 2α-[3-(tetrazol-2-yl)propyl] analog showed weak transactivation activity (EC50 12.5 nM).
