Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Five grams of sancycline was dissolved in 85 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid that was cooled to 0° C. (on ice). N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) was added to the reaction in 300 mg portions every 15 minutes and reacted for 5 hours. The reaction is removed from the ice bath. The mixture, analyzed by HPLC or TLC, show the product of D-ring iodotetracyclines. After the reaction was complete, the sulfuric acid was dripped slowly 1 L of ice water and extracted 7 times with 300 mL of n-butanol. The solvent was removed in vacuo to produce a mixture of three products. The 7-iodo regioisomer, 9-regioisomer and 7,9-diiodosancycline derivative of sancycline were purified by preparative HPLC chromatography or by methods known in the art.
