Selective protection of (9R)-9-amino-9-deoxoerythromycin A allowed for elimination of the 12-hydroxyl group to afford a versatile 12,21-olefin intermediate. Further modifications of the intermediate led to the syntheses of (9R)-9-deoxo-9-(N,N-dimethylamino)-12,21-epoxyerythromycin B, (9R)-9-deoxo-9-(N,N-dimethylamino)-21-hydroxyerythromycin A, and (9R)-9-deoxo-9-(N,N-dimethylamino)-21-hydroxyerythromycin B. All three compounds retained antibacterial activity against several organisms normally susceptible to (9R)-9-deoxo-9-(N,N-dimethylamino)erythromycin A. However, the 21-hydroxylated erythromycin A analogue was weaker in potency than the corresponding erythromycin B congener and much weaker than the epoxy derivative. This suggests that while substitution of a polar functionality at C-21 does not abolish antibacterial activity, introduction of vicinal polar groups at both C-12 and C-21 may lead to reduction in potency. Nevertheless, these 21-functionalized derivatives of (9R)-erythromycylamine provide an entry into novel analogues of the important macrolide antibiotic erythromycin.
