Abstract
(8S)-8-fluoroerythromycin derivatives of formula ##STR1## wherein R is an optionally substituted alkyl, alkenyl or phenyl group PA1 R' is hydrogen or methyl and PA1 R" is hydrogen or hydroxy, may be prepared by fluorination of the corresponding 8,9-anhydroerythromycin 6,9-hemiketals with perchloryl fluoride in the presence of a compound ROH in strictly anhydrous conditions. The new compounds as well as their pharmaceutically acceptable esters, salts and salt-esters may be employed as the active ingredients of pharmaceutical compositions for antibacterial use suitable for oral administration.
