Abstract
Everninomicin antibiotics having a nitro function, e.g. everninomicin B, everninomicin C, and everninomicin D, upon treatment with aluminum amalgam in aqueous alkanol are converted to a mixture of at least two reduction products having antibacterial activity, said reduction products being an everninomicin having a nitroso function and an everninomicin having a hydroxylamino function. The nitrosoeverninomicins are also prepared by treating the corresponding hydroxylaminoeverninomicin with an oxidizing reagent selected from the group consisting of aerial oxidation in alkaline solution, and an alkali metal hypobromite in an aprotic solvent. The everninomicin reduction products and salts thereof are described as well as nitrone derivatives of the hydroxylaminoeverninomicins and salts thereof, all of which possess antibacterial activity. A preferred compound is hydroxylaminoeverninomicin D, particularly the sodium salt thereof.
