Shorter and more efficient routes to 6′‐des(N‐methyl)sannamycin A (1) and its 2′‐epi analog 2 have been elaborated with the proven sannamine‐type acceptor 10 and the glycosyl donors 5–8 featuring novel protecting patterns. With glycal 9 as glycosyl donor (and 10) an expedient access to 2′‐desamino‐ (3) and 2′‐desamino‐2′‐epi‐hydroxysannamycin A (4) has been opened. For 4 a modest antibacterial activity was found, while 3 was inactive.
Total Syntheses of Enantiomerically Pure D-and L-Glycosyl Donors as Components of Sannamycin-Type Aminoglycoside Antibiotics.-Both enantiomers of the compounds (XV) to (XVIII), which are suitable in this form as glycosyl donors, are prepared from racemic acrolein dimer (I) using methods similar to that described for (XV). The products are obtained as anomeric mixtures. -(LUDIN, C.; SCHWESINGER, B.; SCHWESINGER, R.; MEIER, W.; SEITZ, B.; WELLER, T.; HOENKE, C.; HAITZ, S.; ER-BECK, S.; PRINZBACH, H.; J. Chem.

Sannamycin-Type Aminoglycoside Antibiotics -Efficient Syntheses -Biological Activity.-Efficient syntheses of title compounds (IV) are developed based on glycosylations of the proven sannamycin-type acceptor (I) with glycosyl donors featuring novel protection patterns. Compounds (IVc,d) are screened for antibacterial activity. (IVd) exhibits modest activity, while (IVc) is found to be inactive. -(ERBECK, S.; LIANG, X.; HUNKLER, D.; KRIEGER, R.; PRINZBACH, H.; Eur.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
