摘要:
This invention provides an improved process for producing azetidinones. More particularly, this invention provides the steps of producing an trans-azetidinone represented by the formula ##STR1## from a carboxylic acid R.sup.2 --D--CH.sub.2 COOH, an aldehyde R.sup.1 --A--CHO and an amine RNH.sub.2, by the steps of: (a1) converting a carboxylic acid to the corresponding acid chloride; (b1) deprotonating a chiral oxazolidinone and treating the resulting anion with the product of step (a1); (c1) enolizing the product of step (b1) and condensing with the aldehyde; (d1) hydrolyzing the product of step (c1); (e1) condensing the product of step (d1) with the amine; and (f1) cyclizing the product of step (e1). Alternatively, the process comprises (a2) enolizing the product of step (b1) and condensing, in the presence of a Lewis acid, with a Schiff's base prepared from the aldehyde and the amine; and (b2) cyclizing the product of step (a2).
摘要:
Compounds of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1, R.sub.1 ', R.sub.2, R.sub.2 ' and R.sub.3 independently represent a C.sub.1-6 alkyl radical, in addition to which R.sub.3 may represent a hydrogen atom, the alkyl radicals together containing in all at least 8 carbon atoms, are provided for use as highly sterically hindered bases in chemical syntheses.
摘要:
Saturated organic compounds containing a hydrogen atom bound to a tertiary carbon atom may be electrophilically fluorinated by reaction with an electrophilic fluorinating agent such as molecular fluorine or trifluoromethyl hypofluorite under conditions whereby the formation of free fluorine radicals is suppressed, e.g. by the presence of a free radical inhibitor such as oxygen or nitrobenzene, the reactants being substantially homogeneously dispersed in a liquid medium, e.g. a solvent medium such as fluorotrichloromethane or chloroform/fluorotrichloromethane, so that the said hydrogen atom is electrophilically replaced by a fluorine atom. The fluorination is highly selective and, in the case of complex substrates such as saturated steroids which contain a number of tertiary C--H bonds, may be substantially completely confined to replacement of the hydrogen atom at the tertiary carbon atom which has the highest electron density about the C--H bond. The electron density and thus the direction of the fluorination may be controlled by appropriate selection of substituent groupings in the substrate molecule.Novel 14.alpha.-fluorosteroids are also disclosed, including compounds having valuable androgenic or progestational activity and useful synthetic intermediates.

Novel semisynthetic 4-thio-azetidin-2-one derivatives of use in the production of cephalosporins, penicillins and related .beta.-lactam antibiotic compounds are provided by cleavage reactions involving the corresponding 4-dithio-azetidin-2-one derivative or a suitable thiazoline derivative, which starting materials may be obtained from penicillins without changing the configuration of the .beta.-lactam structure desired in the final product.

A process for the preparation of 5,6-cis- and 5,6-trans-10,19-dihydro-vitamin D derivatives which comprises hydrogenating a corresponding vitamin D compound in the presence of a ligand-coordinated homogeneous transition metal catalyst whereby the C-19 methylene group of the vitamin D compound is converted into a methyl group.
摘要:
The process for removing a secondary hydroxyl group from an organic compound having at least one secondary hydroxyl group and having any amino groups protected, comprises the reaction of a reactive ester of said secondary hydroxyl group selected from the group consisting of an O-alkylthioester and an O-alkylselenoester with at least one mole of an organotin hydride, preferably tri-n-butylstannane, in an inert, aprotic solvent at a temperature of at least about 100.degree. C and under an inert atmosphere.The process is particularly useful in removing secondary alcohols in aminoglycoside antibiotics to produce deoxy derivatives thereof having antibacterial activity.Also described are novel O-sec.-alkylthiobenzoate, O-sec.-alkyl-S-methylxanthate, N-(sec.-alkoxythiocarbonyl)-imidazole esters, and di-O-alkylthiocarbonates having at least one secondary O-alkyl group, useful intermediates of the claimed process.

The Specification describes a synthetic route for the preparation of a 9,11-dehydro-3-oxygenated 17.alpha.-hydroxy-20-ketopregnane which comprises the steps (i) electrophilically fluorinating a saturated 9,11-unsubstituted 3-oxygenated-17.alpha.-(esterified hydroxy)-20-ketopregnane, (ii) dehydrofluorinating the resulting 9.alpha.-fluorosteroid, if desired after transformations elsewhere in the molecule have been effected, and (iii) cleaving the ester group at the 17.alpha.-position to generate a 17.alpha.-hydroxy group.

The invention provides novel compositions for use in pharmaceutical and veterinary medicine which contain 1.alpha.-hydroxy vitamin D compounds. Particular compositions are described which contain steroids which induce or assist in combatting osteoporosis together with 1.alpha.-hydroxy vitamin D.sub.3 or 1.alpha.,25-dihydroxy vitamin D.sub.3. Methods of treatment of diseases are also provided including many which are resistant to vitamin D.sub.3, in particular bone diseases.
