Abstract

The invention concerns a method for the synthesis of 6'-ethyl spectinomycin and analogs thereof, including intermediates utilized in the method. The method comprises converting an enamine by a Grignard addition to various novel dienones not hitherto known. The dienones are then hydrogenated and deblocked to obtain 6'-ethyl spectinomycin and analogs thereof. The 6'-ethyl spectinomycin and analogs thereof prepared by the invention exhibit especially good antibacterial activity.
