ABSTRACT

There were synthesized new types of ribbon type steroidal dimers derived from three types of steroidal skeletons (cholic acid, etienic acid, estrone) using Cu(I) catalyzed 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. Steroid parts of the molecular "ribbons" are linked by heterocyclic moiety, namely by 2,6-bis((1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-methyl)pyridine. Compounds synthesized possess different cytotoxic and hormone receptor modulating activities.
