3-Epideoxycholic acid (EDCA) is a secondary bile acid and an epimer of deoxycholic acid .1 EDCA has been used as a steroidal host compound for the enantioselective purification of (2R,3S)-3-methyl-2-pentanol from its racemates via enclathration.2 Fecal levels of EDCA are decreased in patients with pediatric non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).1
