Novel 16-hydroxymethyl-19-nortestosterone diastereomers were prepared by Birch reduction from the corresponding 3-methoxy-16-hydroxymethylestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-ol isomers with known configurations. The synthesized compounds are 16α- and 16β-hydroxymethyl-substituted 19-nortestosterone and their 17α-epimers. To prepare 17α-19-nortestosterone, the Mitsunobu inversion reaction of 19-nortestosterone with different alkyl and aryl carboxylic acids was chosen. Deacylation of the new compounds by the Zemplén method yielded the required 17α-19-nortestosterone.The antiproliferative activities of the structurally related compounds were determined in vitro through microculture tetrazolium assays on a panel of human adherent cervical (HeLa, SiHa and C33A), breast (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-361 and T47D) and ovarian (A2780) cell lines. The 17α epimer of 19-nortestosterone demonstrated considerable activity, selectively for HeLa cells, with a calculated IC50 of 0.65 μM. The reference compound, cisplatin, displayed an order of magnitude higher IC50 (12.4 μM). The cancer selectivity of 17α-19-nortestosterone was tested by MTT assay performed with noncancerous human fibroblast cell line MRC-5. The results indicated that 17α-19-nortestosterone selectively disturbs the viability of HeLa cells without greatly affecting other cancer cell types and intact fibroblasts.
