Abstract
3'-Deoxykanamycin A useful as an antibacterial agent can be produced by a new process comprising reacting a 2',2'-di-O-acylated-3'-O-sulfonylated-tetra-N-protected derivative of kanamycin A with a base such as alkali metal alcoholate in a lower alkanol to effect 2',3'- and 3',4'-epoxidation and concurrently removal of the 2'- and 2'-acyl groups, reducing the resultant N-protected 2',3'-anhydro-3'-epi derivative and 3',4'-anhydro-3'-epi derivative of kanamycin A either with hydrogen in the presence of a known hydrogenation catalyst or with sodium borohydride to afford the corresponding N-protected 3'-deoxygenated derivative of kanamycin A and then removing the residual amino-protecting groups therefrom to give 3'-deoxykanamycin A.
