PROCESS FOR PREPARING RAPAMYCIN 42-ESTERS AND FK-506 32-ESTERS WITH DICARBOXYLIC ACID, PRECURSORS FOR RAPAMYCIN CONJUGATES AND ANTIBODIES
摘要
<p>Methods for the synthesis of regiospecific rapamycin 42-hemiesters and regiospecific FK506 32-esters with dicarboxylic acids is described. The methods involve catalyzing the reaction between a rapamycin or a FK-506 and a dicarboxylic anhydride or a bifunctional activated ester of dicarboxylic acid with a lipase.</p>
