FREMGANGSMAADE TIL FREMSTILLING AF 3',4'-DIDEOXYKANAMYCIN B OG BESKYTTEDE KANAMYCIN B-DERIVATER TIL ANVENDELSE SOM UDGANGSMATERIALE VED FREMGANGSMAADEN

摘要

New routes are provided for the synthesis of 3',4'-dideoxykanamycin B which is effective in inhibiting kanamycin-resistant organisms from kanamycin B through new intermediate, of which a fundamental process comprises a new reaction of a 3',4'-epoxy derivative of amino- and hydroxyl-protected kanamycin B with a xanthate to form a corresponding 3',4'-dideoxy-3'-eno derivative followed by removal of the amino- and hydroxyl-protecting groups thereof and by hydrogenation of the resulting 3',4'-dideoxy-3'-eno-kanamycin B. A 3',4'-episulfide derivative corresponding to the 3',4'-epoxy derivative which is formed as second product in the reaction of 3',4'-epoxy derivative with xanthate is also used as intermediate for the preparation of 3',4'-dideoxykanamycin B.
