Abstract

The present invention involves the synthetic conversion of pyridinoline (PYD) to deoxypyridinoline (DPD) via an intermediate ester which is subsequently cleaved. The transformation of PYD into a xanthate-type ester intermediate facilitates the subsequent removal of the substituted hydroxyl functionality thus providing the desired DPD. The method provides a new chemical pathway for the preparation of DPD, resulting in significantly increased yields as compared to traditional methods of product isolation.
