Abstract

Abstract A mono-ester of the antibiotic SF-837 substance and leucomycin A3 in which the hydroxyl group at the 10-position of the lactone ring of the molecule has been esterified can simply and effeciently be produced in one step by reacting the free base form of the SF-837 substance or leucomycin A3 with an acyl halide in solution in a selected solvent and in the presence of a selected acid-binding agent, in contrast to the previously known method of producing said mono-ester which needs two-stage reactions, namely the preparation of the di-ester and subsequent partial de-acylation of the di-ester.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 15 words
A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A MONO-ESTER OF THE SF-837 SUBSTANCE OF THE FORMULA:
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 15 words
A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A MONO-ESTER OF THE SF-837 SUBSTANCE OF THE FORMULA:
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 58 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 in which the mono-acetate of the SF-837 substance is produced by reacting the SF-837 substance with acetyl chloride or bromide in solution in a solvent selected from benzene, toluene, ethyl acetate and methyl isobutyl ketone and in the presence of a quantity of an acid-binding agent selected from pyridine and picoline.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 58 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 in which the mono-propionate of the SF-837 substance is produced by reacting the SF-837 substance with propionyl chloride or bromide in solution in a solvent selected from benzene, toluene, ethyl acetate and methyl isobutyl ketone and in the presence of a quantity of an acid-binding agent selected from pyridine and picoline.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 in which the reaction of the SF-837 substance is carried out at a temperature of 0* to 30* C.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 36 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 in which pyridine or picoline as the acid-binding agent is present in such an amount which is substantially sufficient to neutralize all the hydrogen halide liberated during the reaction.
