The aminoglycosides are a clinically important class of antibiotics with broad activity against many strains of gram-neg­ ative bacteria. Concurrent with the extensive use of aminoglyco­ sides, resistant organisms, many of which contain transferable R-factors, have become more prevalent. The plasmids in the resistant strains code for enzymes which inactivate various aminoglycosides by phosphorylation, acetylation or adenylation (1,2). The antibiotics can be rendered resistant to inactivation through appropiate structual modifications (1,2). For our purposes the pseudodisaccharide neamine (1), a component of

neomycin and kanamycin B, provided a model substrate for carry­ ing out modifications with this objective. Although 1 is less active against bacteria than typical pseudotrisaccharides such as kanamycin or gentamicin, it is also less toxic (2). Such a 1

pseudodisaccharide, suitably modified, might have useful activity of itself, or it might serve as a basis for the construction of appropriate pseudotrisaccharides. The principal mechanism for neamine inactivation is phosphorylation of its 3'-hydroxyl group, a reaction which has an important role in the development of resistance to neomycin and kanamycin. I t has been demonstrated that removal o f the oxygen f u n c t i o n a t the 3 ' - p o s i t i o n r e s u l t s i n a n t i b i o t i c s w i t h enhanced a c t i v i t y a g a i n s t such r e s i s t a n t organ­ isms (1 _2) . Along these l i n e s , we have synthesized the 3'- and 4'-thio-3'-and 4'-deoxy- analogs of neamine and 4'-thio-4'-deoxykanamycin Β as p a r t o f a more general program of modifying amino­ g l y c o s i d e a n t i b i o t i c s . These analogs were obtained by nucleop h i l i c opening o f the a p p r o p r i a t e epoxy precursors u s i n g b e n z y l mercaptide. 5

The monoester was r e a d i l y separated from the more s o l u b l e d i e s t e r by p r e c i p i t a t i o n from ether-petroleum ether. Since only one monoester could be detected i n the product, any 4'-monobenzoate formed i n the r e a c t i o n mixture must have been benzoylated t o the d i e s t e r .
