Selective substitutions in the C10-methyl group in erythromycin derivatives
摘要:
A method for chemical modifications of the relatively unreactive C10-methyl group in the erythromycin macrolactone ring has been developed. Erythralosamine was protected as an N-oxide in the N,N-dimethylamino group and reacted with NBS in acetic acid to provide two regioisomeric allylic bromides. The same amine was formed from both isomers on nucleophilic substitution. Both regioisomeric bromides in cross-coupling reactions under Stille conditions provided the same product from substitution in the 10-methyl group via a common pi-allylic palladium complex. Under Negishi conditions with trimethylalane, the Pd-catalysed cross-coupling provided the 10-ethyl homologue. X-ray analyses were used to confirm the structure of erythralosamine, and to determine the structures of the allylic bromides from erythralosamine N-oxide. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
