SYNTHESIS OF (±) -CALICHEAMICINONE, PRECURSORS, INTERMEDIATES AND DERIVATIVES

Field of Invention

This invention relates to compounds that have antibiotic activity including but not limited to anticancer and antimicrobial activity. More particularly, the invention relates to calicheamicinone, related compounds and processes for preparing the same.

Background of the Invention

Calicheamicin y^ (referred to herein as calicheamicin) contains a complex bicyclic enediyne allylic core structure and oligosaccharide chain connected through a glycosyl bond to the core structure. Removal of the carbohydrate chain releases the aglycone, calicheamicinone. The oligosaccharide chain binds at the 5' side of a TCCT DNA sequence through interactions in the minor groove of the DNA strand. The enediyne core can introduce single- or double- stranded cuts in the DNA. Calicheamicin has antibiotic activity, particularly antitumor activity. (Smith et al . 1993; Haseltine et al. 1991; Aiyer et al 1994; Lee et al . 1992) .

The synthesis of calicheamicin and calicheamicinone has been achieved. Calicheamicin is extremely potent but lacks the specificity desired for an effective antitumor drug. There is a continuing need to identify new calicheamicinone-related compound intermediates and

step for the insertion of these groups, appropriate solvents and reagents and appropriate reaction conditions.

In structure 83, R 7 and R 8 together can form a moiety selected from the R 1 and R 2 groups described in U.S. application 5,264,586, incorporated herein by reference.

In structures 82, 83 or 84, R 9 is independently a hydroxyl group or a recognition unit for DNA such as a carbohydrate or a lexitropsin.

In structure 82, 83 or 84, R 10 is independently an oxoalkyl or a cyclic ketal.

A DNA recognition group typically confers specificity by its binding preference for particular DNA sequences. For example, a lexitropsin such as netropsin, which preferentially binds to A-T rich sequences, can be used as a nucleic acid recognizing group. Another suitable DNA recognition group is the monosaccharide and trisaccharide groups of esperamicin A : . See, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,384,412, incorporated herein by reference.

The novel process can be used to synthesize related compounds with metal complexes such as those described in U.S. patent 5,412,082, incorporated herein by reference. Other related enediyne compounds can be made after suitable modification of the processes disclosed herein. For example, a hydroxyl group can be included at carbon 6,

as in enediyne aglyone antitumor moieties such as esperamicin A 1# during the synthetic pathways disclosed herein. See, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 5,504,206, incorporated herein by reference. The C(6) hydroxyl preferably is incorporated at or before formation of compound 7.

In one embodiment, ketene acetal 5 is converted into silyl enol ether 6, which undergoes a Diels-Alder reaction with methyl (E) -2-nitropropenoate 66 to produce ketone 7. Modification of the nitro, ester, and allyl substituents then result in ketone 18.

Compound 18 has been discovered to undergo a stereoselective reaction with cerium trimethylsilylacetylide to place the acetylene unit syn to the nitrogen function. More basic acetylide reactants such as the lithium analog are less preferred. Further elaboration takes the synthesis as far as aldehyde 22 (also termed Compound 33) .

Similarly, ketone 7 can be converted into tricyclic ketone 28, which also reacts with cerium trimethylsilylacetylide but in the opposite stereochemical sense to 18, so as to place the acetylene unit anti to the nitrogen function (28 - 29) . Further elaboration results in lactone 32. Both 22 and 32 can be used as intermediates for the synthesis of (±) -calicheamicinone.

In the first pathway to calicheamicinone (Route B, Figure 7, Figure 4) , monoacetylenic aldehyde 33 which reacts with cerium trimethylsilylacetylide to stereoselectively form the bis (acetylene) 36 as the major product. This is

-22-

SUBST1TUTESHEET(RULE26)

elaborated into lactone 40 which was desaturated (40-44) and acylated on nitrogen. The acetylenic silyl groups are then removed, so as to generate bis (acetylene) 46, and the terminal acetylenic hydrogens are replace by iodine. The resulting diidodide 56 forms the cyclic enediyne 57 on reaction with (Z) -1,2-bis (tributylstannyl)ethene in the presence of a (Ph3P)3Pd, and the enediyne is elaborated into {+) -calicheamicinone.

In the second pathway, bis (acetylene) 46 is synthesized from lactone 47, using, as a key step, free radical bromination of the derived lactone 51. See Figure 5. Compound 47 is the same as Compound 32. The resulting bromo lactone 52 is converted into aldehyde ester 54, and this is reacted with cerium trimethylsilylacetylide to stereoselectively give 55, convertible by the action of TBAF into 46.

The previous embodiments involved a Diels-Alder reaction between ketene acetal 6 and methyl 3- nitropropenoate (66) , to give ketone 7 (Scheme 7 of Figure 7) . As shown in Scheme 8 (Figure 7) , ketone 7 is converted into racemic calicheamicinone by two related methods, via 67 and 67' (in a first route, termed route A) and 68 and 68' (in a second route, termed Route B) . Transformations 7-67- 67'-(±)-l and 7-68-68'- (±) -1 were done using racemic compounds, but only one enantiomer is shown in Scheme 8 of Figure 7. Diagrams emphasize that in one route the acetylene at C(5) is introduced syn to the nitrogen, while

in the other route the relationship is anti. Further elaboration of 67' and 68' involves converting C(2), C(3), and C(4) to sp 2 hybridization, so that the only stereogenic center retained in 67' and 68' is C(5) . In an alternative process, ketone 7 is used as the starting material to synthesize either enantiomer of calicheamicinone 1. This aspect of the present invention involves the discovery of an asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction between the ketene acetal 6 and a chiral auxiliary, e.g., the 3-nitropropenoate 72, resulting in the optically pure adduct 77. Compound 77 can subsequently be converted into either enantiomer of calicheamicinone (1) via one of two alternative pathways. Compound 72 can be derived, for example, from (-) -8-phenylmenthol (71) . Alternatively, the enantiomer (+) -8-phenylmenthol can be used. Either enantiomer of 7 can serve equally well for the preparation of (-)-l. The enantiomer of 7 with 2S absolute configuration is processed by route A, while the 2R isomer would also give (-)-l, but by route B. To carry out the initial Diels-Alder reaction in an asymmetric manner and form optically pure material, a nitroalkene 69 is used in which group X is a chiral auxiliary. One group of candidates are oxazolidinones, e.g. compound 70. Alternatively, (-) -8-phenylmenthol 71 can be used. Compound 71 is readily available from .R-pulegone as described in Ort, 1987. Compound 71 can be converted to

ketone 72 by reaction with 6, as shown in Scheme 9 of Figure 8.

Ketone 77 is reduced with NaBH4 to obtain a mixture of alcohols epimeric at C(5) , which are then silylated (78- 79; t-BuMe2SiOTf, 2,6-lutidine, ca . 100% over two steps) . Other trialkylsilyl moieties may also be used, e.g., a triethylsilyl moiety. The chiral auxiliary is disengaged by treatment with DIBAL-H (Diisobutyl aluminum hydride, also referred to as DIBAL) to afford 80 and 71. The t-BuMe2Si group at C(5) is removed if the reaction is carried out at room temperature. On the other hand, the reaction with DIBAL is very slow at -78°C. Therefore, it is preferable to add about 2 equivalents (equiv.) of DIBAL-H and carry out the reaction at -78°C for 4 hours (h) , transfer the reaction flask to a bath at -3,0°C for 24 h, add about 2 equiv. of DIBAL-H and stir at -30°C for about 24 h. At this point, the C(5) epimeric silyl ethers 80 can be isolated in 80% yield, and the auxiliary can be recovered in 92% yield. Epimers 80 are easily separated by flash chromatography over silica gel to obtain 81a (53% from 77) and 81b (27% from 77) .

The preparation of optically pure 81a and 81b as described above constitutes a formal synthesis of (-)- calicheamicinone. Application of Route B results in the formation of (+) -calicheamicinone the unnatural stereoisomer.

A pharmaceutical composition is contemplated that comprises a novel compound described herein as active agent dissolved or dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. A pharmaceutical composition is prepared by any of the methods known in the art of pharmacy all of which involve bringing into association the active compound and the carrier therefor. For therapeutic use, a novel compound can be administered in the form of conventional pharmaceutical compositions. Such compositions can be formulated so as to be suitable for oral or parenteral administration, or as suppositories. In these compositions, the agent is typically dissolved or dispersed in a physiologically tolerable carrier.

A carrier or diluent is a material useful for administering the active compound and must be

"pharmaceutically acceptable" in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the composition and not deleterious to the recipient thereof. As used herein, the phrase "pharmaceutically acceptable" refers to molecular entities and compositions that do not produce an untoward reaction, such as gastric upset, dizziness and the like, when administered to a mammal. The physiologically tolerable carrier can take a wide variety of forms depending upon the preparation desired for administration and the intended route of administration.

As an example of a useful composition, a compound of the invention (active agent) can be utilized, dissolved or

dispersed in a liquid composition such as a sterile suspension or solution, or as isotonic preparation containing suitable preservatives. Particularly well-suited for the present purposes are injectable media constituted by aqueous injectable buffered or unbuffered isotonic and sterile saline or glucose solutions, as well as water alone, or an aqueous ethanol solution. Additional liquid forms in which these compounds can be incorporated for administration include flavored emulsions with edible oils such as cottonseed oil, sesame oil, coconut oil, peanut oil, and the like, as well as elixirs and similar pharmaceutical vehicles. Exemplary further liquid diluents can be found in Remmington 's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, PA (1980) . An active agent can also be used in compositions such as tablets or pills, preferably containing a unit dose of the compound. To this end, the agent (active ingredient) is mixed with conventional tableting ingredients such as corn starch, lactose, sucrose, sorbitol, talc, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate, gums, or similar materials as non-toxic, physiologically tolerable carriers. It should be understood that in addition to the aforementioned carrier ingredients the pharmaceutical formulation described herein can include, as appropriate, one or more additional carrier ingredients such as diluents, buffers, flavoring agents, binders, surface active agents, thickeners, lubricants, preservatives (including

-27-

' SUBSTΪTUTESHEET(RULE26)

antioxidants) and the like, and substances included for the purpose of rendering the formulation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient.

The term "unit dose", as used herein, refers physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for administration to warm blooded animals, each such unit containing predetermined quantity of the agent calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the pharmaceutically acceptable diluent. Examples of suitable unit dosage forms in accord with this invention are tablets, capsules, pills, powder packets, granules, wafers, cachets, teaspoonfuls, dropperfuls, ampules, vials, segregated multiples of any of the foregoing, and the like. An exemplary compound of the invention is present in such a pharmaceutical composition in an amount effective to achieve the desired result. For example, where in vi tro DNA cleavage is the desired result, a compound of the invention can be utilized in an amount sufficient to provide a concentration of about 1.0 to about 5000 micromolar (μM) with a DNA concentration of about 0.02 μg/μL. The non- naturally occurring isomer of calicheamicimone, when linked to the natural carbohydrate unit, appears to be more efficient in causing double strand cleavage of DNA than the natural compound. Compounds of the present invention provide potent DNA-cleaving activity.

As a cytotoxic (antitumor) agent, an effective amount of a compound is about 0.1 to about 15 mg per kilogram of

-28-

SUBSTTTUTESHEET(RULE26)

body weight or an amount sufficient to provide a concentration of about 0.01 to about 50 μg/mL to the bloodstream. A compound of the invention exhibits antimicrobial activity in a concentration range of about 0.01 ng to about 50 μg/mL. The above concentrations and dosages vary with the particular compound of the invention utilized as well as with the target, e.g., DNA, tumor, microbe, as is known.

The invention will be further understood with reference to the following illustrative embodiments, which are purely exemplary and should not be taken as limiting the true scope of the present invention as described in the claims.

Abbreviations

Example 1

Two intermediates, compounds 22 and 32, useful for the synthesis of (±) - calicheamicinone are synthesized in this example. A key step in the formation of these intermediates is the stereoselective addition of an acetylene unit.

An ester exchange reaction with β-keto ester 4, C1CH 2 CH 2 0H and Ti(0Pr-J) 4 followed by K 2 C0 3 treatment generated ketene acetal 5. Triene 6 was formed by deprotonating 5 to the z-enolate using (Ph 2 MeSi) 2 NLi and trapping with Me 3 SiCl . A Diels-Alder reaction with triene 6 and methyl- (E) -2-nitropropenoate 66 was used to form ketone 7, a key intermediate in the synthesis. Its structure was confirmed by x-ray analysis. Ketone 7 contains all necessary carbons of the target compounds, except for the enediyne and carbamate. See Figure 1.

As shown in Figure 2, reduction of 7 with NaBH 4 produced a 2:1 mixture of C(5) epimeric alcohols 8, of which the major epimer (5-β) is shown. The alcohols were separated after silylation with t-BuMeSiOTF and 2,6-lutidine to form 9. Both isomers were independently converted into ketone 18 by identical routes, but only the procedure for the major β isomer is described. Yields for the corresponding α isomer are given in Scheme 2 in parentheses. DIBAL-H reduction of the ester group of alcohol 9 generated primary alcohol 10. A pivoloate protective moiety was added to alcohol 10 using t-BuCOCl and DMAP, forming compound 11. Cleavage of the double bond in 11 with Os0 4 and NaI0 4 , resulted in aldehyde 12. Reduction of 12 with NaBH 4 to the corresponding alcohol 13 and protection with p- methoxyphenoxymethyl chloride and I-Pr 2 NEt resulted in compound 14. The nitro group of 14 was reduced with NiCl 2 and NaBH 4 to form 15, then protected with allyloxycarbonyl

-30-

SUBST1TUTESHEET(RULE26)

chloride and pyridine to generate carbamate 16. Desilylation of carbamate 16 with TBAF resulted in 17; subsequent Collins oxidation gave ketone 18.

Introduction of the enediyne system into ketone 18 was initiated with cerium trimethylsilyl-acetylide . This reaction had high stereoselectivity and an excellent yield. The cerium salt was prepared as follows. Cerium chloride heptahydrate was dehydrated by stirring for 3-12 hours at 130°C under 0.05 mmHg. After cooling the anhydrous salt, it was covered with tetrahydrofuran (THF) and sonicated overnight to obtain a fine suspension. The suspension was cooled to -78°C and a precooled (-78°C) , freshly made solution of lithium salt of trimethylsilylacetylene in THF was rapidly added and stirred at -78°C for 40 minutes. An acetylene unit was introduced at C5 of ketone 18, syn to the nitrogen substituent, by cerium trimethylsilylacetylide treatment, resulting in tertiary alcohol 19. Compound 19 was protected with t-BuMe 2 SiOTf and 2,6-lutidine to form 20, then reduced with DIBAL-H to remove the pivaloyl group, forming alcohol 21. Oxidation of 21 resulted in aldehyde 22, an advanced key intermediate that serves as the starting point for attachment of an acetylenic unit at C(9) in a stereocontrolled manner, introduction of a double bond at C(2)-C(3), and geometrically controlled introduction of a double bond at C(4) - C(7) .

An alternative advanced intermediate 32 was synthesized as shown in Scheme 3 of Figure 3. Compounds 22 (also

referred to herein as 33) and 32 are both suitable for conversion into 1 and related compounds. The second approach was also initiated from racemic 10. Both the C(5- β) isomer and the corresponding C(5-α) isomer can be used. As described above, only the route from 5-β is shown, but yields for the same reactions in the 5-α series are given in Scheme 3 of Figure 3.

As shown in Figure 3, the double bond of 10 was first cleaved with Os0 4 and NaI0 4 and the resulting equilibrium mixture of lactols 23 produced a single pivaloate 24 in the presence of t-BuCOCl and pyridine. The nitro group of 24 was reduced with NiCl 2 and NaBH 4 to form 25, then protected with allyloxycarbonyl chloride and pyridine to afford 26. Compound 26 was desilylated with TBAF to generate 27 then PCC oxidized, forming compound 28. The first acetylene unit was introduced into 28 by reaction with cerium trimethylsilylacetylide, forming tertiary alcohol 29. The cerium salt was prepared as described for scheme 2. In this alternative route, the acetylene was introduced anti to the nitrogen, opposite to that observed in the first route.

Protection of the hydroxyl of 29 with t-BuMe 2 SiOTf and 2,6- lutidine resulted in 30. DIBAL-H reduction of 30 removed the pivaloyl group to form 31; Collins oxidation then produced compound 32. Addition of double bonds at C(4) - C(7) and C(2) - C(3) and an acetylene unit at C(9) are described below.

-32-

SUBSTITIJTE SHEET (RULE 26)

In both 22 and 32, the only stereogenic center that is preserved after elaboration to (±) - calicheamicinone is C(5) . Consequently, when synthesizing (-) - calicheamicinone of natural stereochemistry as depicted in 1, intermediates corresponding to 7 with (2R) absolute configuration must be processed by the route of Figure 2. The reactions of Figure 3 would be used to prepare the (2S) isomer.

Example 2

In the preceding Example, key intermediates 32 and 33 were synthesized. These advanced intermediates were elaborated into (±) - calicheamicone 1 as described below. All compounds in this Example are racemic. However, only one enantiomer is drawn in each case except that the other enantiomeric representation of 32 is also drawn (Compound 47) . Both 32 and 33 are represented exactly as shown, in order to emphasize the stereochemistry at C(5) relative to the other stereogenic centers. The stereochemistry at C(5) is preserved while other stereogenic centers are converted to sp 2 -hybridization during synthesis. Monoacetylenic aldehyde 33 was reacted with cerium trimethylsilylacetylide, prepared as in Example 1, to achieve stereoselective formation of alcohol 36 as the major product (Figure 4) . Isolated yield of the major product ranged from 71 - 76%. Yield of the C(9) epimer minor product was 18%. Acylation of compound 36 with ClCH 2 C0Cl and DMAP generated 37. The p-AOM group of 37 was removed

-56-

SUBSTTTUTESHEET(RULE26)

with (NH 4 ) 2 Ce (N0 3 ) 6 to form 38. Alcohol 38 was oxidized to aldehyde 39 by the method of Collins. Hydrolysis of chloroacetyl ester 39 in aqueous NH 3 formed lactols, which were readily convertible to lactone 40 through Collins oxidation.

Double bonds were next introduced at C(4) - C(7) and C(2) - C(3) as follows. Desaturation of C(4) - C(7) of 40 with phenylselenenyl chloride and LDA, and oxidation with demethyldioxirane resulted in compound 41. The allyloxycarbonyl group of 41 was removed with Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 and dimedone, forming compound 42. Some selenenylation may also occur on the nitrogen. X-ray analysis confirmed the structure of 42. N-chlorination of 42 with t-BuOCl formed 43. Room temperature treatment of 43 with DABCO afforded 44 as an 8 : 1 mixture of C(9) epimers. The major isomer is shown in Figure 4. N-methoxycarbonylation of 44 with triphosgene and methanol gave 45 (78% from 42) , also an 8:1 mixture of C(9) epimers. Alkynyl silyl groups were removed with TBAF without separation to generate 46, resulting in further epimerization at C(9) . Compound 46 (46% isolated yield from isomer mixture 45) was chromatographically separated from the C(9) - epimer (39% isolated yield) .

The structure of 46 was confirmed by X-ray analysis. A crucial feature of the molecular dimensions of 46 was the distance between the terminal alkynyl carbons, which was

4.154+,.005A. The C(9) epimers of 46 were interconverted to

some extent by TBAF. A method to equilibrate them to raise the yield of 46 to 70% is described below.

Compound 46 was also made from racemic 32, represented by enantiomer 47 in Figure 5. Using methods and reagents described above, 47 was desaturated at C(4)-C(7) to obtain 48, deprotected at nitrogen to form 49, desaturated at C(2)- C(3) to form 50, and methoxycarbonylated to form 51. Next, C(9) of compound 51 was brominated in the following manner. (PhCO) 2 0 2 was added to 51, covered with dry CC1 4 , refluxed under argon, and illuminated with a 100 W tungsten filament bulb. N-bromosuccinimide (ΝBS) was added at intervals. The resulting mixture was filtered through a pad of Celine using CC1 4 . Evaporation of the filtrate at room temperature gave the crude product 52. Brominated compound 52 was hydrolyzed with aqueous AgΝ0 3 to give 53 then esterified with CH 2 N 2 to form aldehyde ester 54. Compounds 52 and 53 exist as two hydroxy lactones, epimeric at C(9) . Compound 54 was reacted stereoselectively with freshly prepared cerium trimethylsilylacetylide, forming 55. Desilylation of 55 with TBAF resulted in 46 (46%) , identical to the material obtained by Figure 4.

During desilylation of 55, some epimerization occurs at C(9) . However, treatment of the anti-isomer acetylenic units at C(5) and C(9) with Bu 4 N0Ac gives quantitatively a 6:4 mixture in favor of 46. Therefore, by equilibrating the anti-diyne once, it is possible to convert 55 into 46 with a 71% yield.

SUBSΠTUTE SHEET (RULE 26)

Acetylenic hydrogens in 46 were replaced with iodine, using NIS and AgN0 3 resulting in 56. As shown in Figure 6, Pd-mediated condensation of 56 generated the cyclic enediyne

57 using Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 and (Z) -1, 2-bis (trirnethylstannyl) ethene at 60°C. After DIBAL-H reduction of 57, the solubility of

58 was improved by desilylation with TBAF to form 59. Reduction of 59 with NaBH 4 gave triol 60. Silylation of 60 to 61, followed by selective hydrolysis with a 3:6:1 ratio of AcOH, THF and H 2 0 generated allylic alcohol 62. Under Mitsunobu conditions with diisopropyl azodicarboxylate, Ph 3 P and AcSH, 62 was converted to thiol acetate 63, then deacylated with DIBAL-H to generate thiol 64. Compound 64 is stable in the absence of oxygen, but relatively labile in the presence of oxygen. Compound 64 was converted directly to trisulfide 65 with N- (methyldithio)phthalimide (88% yield from 63) . Finally, acid hydrolysis of 65 with TsOH and H 2 0 disengaged the two remaining protecting groups, resulting in synthetic (+_) - calicheamicinone 1.

Example 3

In Example 3, th.e initial Diels-Alder reaction was carried out in an asymmetric manner.

Acylation of 71 with acryloyl chloride, Et 3 N and DMAP produced ester 73 (Scheme 9 of Figure 8) . The double bond of 73 was cleaved with NaI0 4 -Os0 4 (ca 100%) to generate a mixture of glyoxylate 74 and the corresponding hydrate 75. Compound 75 underwent a Henry reaction with nitromethane in the presence of neutral alumina to give a mixture of alcohols. Dehydration of the alcohols by mesylation and in si tu elimination resulted in 3-nitropropenoate 72. The vinyl hydrogens of 72 had J = 13.5 Hz.

A Diels-Alder reaction of 72 with ketene acetal 6 was carried out at -78°C and, after mild hydrolysis in aqueous NH 4 C1 at room temperature for 2 hours (h) , yielded adduct 77, as shown in Figure 8. Compound 77 was purified by flash chromatography and crystallization, with a 64% yield. No other diastereoisomers were detected. However, the mass balance was not quantitative, and other minor constituents may have been formed. X-ray analysis showed that the absolute stereochemistry is as shown. The corresponding reaction with methyl ester 66 proceeded with a 53% yield, indicating that the efficiency of the Diels-Alder reaction is somewhat sensitive to the nature of the O-alkyl group of the ester. From the absolute stereochemistry of the adduct, further elaboration to (-)- calicheamicinone preferably follows path A of Scheme 8 (Figure 7) .

Reduction of ketone 77 with NaBH 4 gave a mixture of alcohols 78 epimeric at C(5) that were silylated with t- BuMe 2 SiOTf and 2,6-lutidine to form 79. The chiral auxiliary was removed by DIBAL treatment to afford 80 and 71. DIBAL-H (2 equiv.) was added at -78°C and, after 4 hours, the reaction flask was transferred to a bath at -30°C. Another portion of DIBAL-H (2 equiv.) was added 24 hours after the first batch, and was continuously stirred for 24 hours. At this point, the C(5) epimeric silyl ethers 80 were isolated in 80% yield, and the auxiliary was

recovered in 92% yield. Epimers 80 were separated by flash chromatography over silica gel to afford 81a (53% from 77) and 81b (27% from 77) .

Each of these alcohols and the corresponding racemic compounds were converted into their Mosher esters and examined by 19 F NMR spectroscopy. Both 81a and 81b were optically pure, the CF 3 -signals (two in each case) for the corresponding racemic materials being well separated (22 and 57 Hz, respectively) . In Examples 1 and 2, material corresponding to 81a and

81b was converted into (±) -calicheamicinone by route A

(Scheme 8 of Figure 7) . Consequently, preparation of optically pure 81a and 81b as described in this example constituted formal synthesis of (-) - calicheamicinone. Application of route -B (Scheme 8 of Figure 7) would lead to (+) -calicheamicinone, the unnatural stereochemical enantiomer.
