Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of chemical engineering, specifically to a C11a-OH tetracycline compound and its synthesis method. Background Technology
[0002] Tetracyclines are a class of broad-spectrum antibiotics with good inhibitory effects on a variety of bacteria and fungi, including Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and anaerobic bacteria. Studies have shown that their antibacterial mechanism is related to magnesium ion coordination; the O11 and O12 groups of tetracycline bind to ribosomes via magnesium ions, thereby exerting an inhibitory effect. Existing technologies only disclose methods for generating a hydroxyl group at the C11a position of tetracycline through biosynthesis, thereby preventing its coordination with magnesium ions, causing tetracycline decomposition, and leading to bacterial resistance. Currently, there are no publicly disclosed general structural formulas or chemical synthesis methods for tetracycline compounds with a hydroxyl group at the C11a position.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new technical solution. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this invention discloses a method for synthesizing C11a-OH tetracycline compounds, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:
[0005] This invention provides a method for synthesizing C11a-OH tetracycline compounds, comprising the following steps:
[0006] A polar solvent and tetracycline raw material (1) were added sequentially to a round-bottom flask. After stirring, m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid was slowly added to the flask at room temperature. After reacting for 2 hours, the solvent was removed by rotary evaporation under reduced pressure. The target C11a-OH tetracycline compound (2) was obtained by reverse phase preparation. The reaction formula is shown in formula (II).
