The synthesis of four CD-ring-modified 19-nor-1alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) derivatives lacking C15, referred to as 6C analogues, and diastereomeric at C17 and C20 is described. The synthesis involves an Ireland-Claisen rearrangement of a 3-methyl-substituted ester of (1R)-3-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-ol as the key step
