A method for preparing deferoxamine and a composition of formula (I): X-Ph-CH2-O-C(O)-NH-(CH2)4-CH=NOR, wherein X is a C1-C4 alkyl, -O(C1-C4 alkyl), a halogen or hydrogen; R is X-Ph-CH2- or hydrogen for preparing deferoxamine. In one embodiment X and R are hydrogen. The intermediate formula (I), has the advantage of being prepared in fewer and more efficient steps from readily available materials than conventional means for preparing deferoxamine. |
