Abstract
To provide novel fluorine-containing anthracycline derivatives having high antitumor activities and a solubility in water, there have now been synthesized a 7-O-(2,6-dideoxy-2-fluoro-3-O- or -4-O- or -3,4-di-O-aminoalkanoyl-.alpha.-L-talopyranosyl)daunomycinone or -adriamycinone of general formula (I) shown below, as well as a 7-O-(3-O- or -4-O- or -3,4-di-O-aminoalkanoyl-2,6-dideoxy-2,6,6,6-tetrafluoro-.alpha.-L-talopyra nosyl- or -2,6-dideoxy-6,6,6-trifluoro-.alpha.-L-lyxo-hexopyranosyl)adriamycinone of general formula (II) shown below: General formula (I) ##STR1## General formula (II) ##STR2## wherein either one or both of A.sup.1 and A.sup.2 is or are an .alpha.-amino acid residue or an .omega.-amino acid residue and T denotes a fluorine or hydrogen atom. The novel fluorine-containing anthracycline derivatives of general formulae (I) and (II) are highly active against tumors and soluble in water, and they are useful as antitumor agents administrable in the form of injectable solution.
