Design, synthesis, spectral and theoretical study of new bile acid-sterol conjugates linked via 1,2,3-triazole ring.

New four steroid conjugates have been prepared from bile acids and sterol derivatives using click chemistry method. The azide-alkyne Huisgen cycloaddition (intermolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition) of the propargyl ester of lithocholic, deoxycholic, cholic acid as well as dehydrocholic acids and azide derivatives of cholesterol gave a new bile acid-sterol conjugates linked with a 1,2,3-triazole ring. Previously, bile acids were converted into bromoacetyl substituted derivatives by the reaction of propargyl esters of lithocholic, deoxycholic, cholic with bromoacetic acid bromide in toluene with TEBA and sodium hydride. All conjugates were obtained in good yields using an efficient synthesis method. The structures of all products were confirmed by spectral (H- and C NMR, and FT-IR) analysis, mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), as well as PM5 semiempirical methods. Estimation of the pharmacotherapeutic potential has been accomplished for the synthesized compounds on the basis of Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances (PASS).
