2-Mercaptoethanol → HCID 18755775, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Another preferred embodiment involves the formation of yet another novel bifunctional compound (FIG. 5). Chlorocarbonyl sulfenyl chloride was reacted with 2mercaptoethanol and 2-mercaptopyridine. Ammonium carbonate solution was added to form 2-(2-Pyridinyl)dithio)ethanol as a colorless oil. Carbonyldiimidazole was added and the mixture was reacted with hydrazine to form 2-[(2-pyridinyl)dithio]ethyl hydrazinecarboxylate, compound 13. This compound was reacted with adriamycin hydrochloride and TFA and then acetonitrile to form the carboxylatehydrazone derivative of ADM (compound 4, FIG. 1) having a carboxylatehydrazone bond at the C-13 position of the ADM and having a reactive pyridinyldithio moiety.
