A compound represented by the formula I ##STR1## wherein X is independently both F or both Cl or one X is independently F and the other is independently Cl; R.sub.1 is a straight or branched chain (C.sub.3 to C.sub.8) alkyl group substituted by one or two amino acid ester groups (e.g., an amino acid ester group convertible in vivo into a hydroxy group) thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and pharmaceutical compositions thereof useful for treating and/or preventing fungal infections are disclosed.

Tetrahydrofuran antifungals

A compound represented by the formula I ##STR1## wherein X is independently both F or both Cl or one X is independently F and the other is independently Cl; R.sub.1 is a straight or branched chain (C.sub.3 to C.sub.8) alkyl group substituted by one or two groups convertible in vivo into hydroxy moieties, (e.g., a polyether ester, amino acid ester or phosphate ester) thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and pharmaceutical compositions thereof useful for treating and/or preventing fungal infections are disclosed.

A compound represented by the formula I ##STR1## wherein X is independently both F or both Cl or one X is independently F and the other is independently Cl; R.sub.1 is a straight or branched chain (C.sub.3 to C.sub.8) alkyl group substituted by one or two polyetyher ester groups (e.g., a polyether ester convertible in vivo into a hydroxy group) thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and pharmaceutical compositions thereof useful for treating and/or preventing fungal infections are disclosed.

A compound represented by the formula I ##STR1## wherein X is independently both F or both Cl or one X is independently F and the other is independently Cl; R.sub.1 is a straight or branched chain (C.sub.3 to C.sub.8) alkyl group substituted by one or two hydroxy moieties, an ether ester (e.g., a polyetherester or phosphate ester) thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and pharmaceutical compositions thereof useful for treating and/or preventing fungal infections are disclosed.

Disclosed is a process for preparing chiral compounds of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein: X.sup.1 and X.sup.2 are independently F or Cl; and E is --SO.sub.2 R.sup.2, wherein R.sup.2 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl, --C.sub.6 H.sub.4 CH.sub.3 or --CF.sub.3 ; its enantiomer and racemates thereof, useful in the synthesis of tetrahydrofuran azole antifungals. Novel compounds of the formula ##STR2## wherein: X.sup.1 and X.sup.2 are independently F or Cl; B represents --C(O)Q* or --CH.sub.2 OR'; Q* represents a chiral auxiliary group; R' represents a hydroxy protecting group selected from --CH.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.5, or --C(O)R.sup.1, wherein R.sup.1 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl; and A represents Cl, Br, I or triazolyl; are also disclosed.
