Abstract
The invention relates to deuterated vitamin D compounds and the process for preparing and synthesizing a class of vitamin D compounds which can be isotopically substituted. These compounds can be used as internal standards in methods for the quantification of vitamin D, its metabolites and analogues by mass spectrometry. These compounds are described by means of general formula I.
