โฆ Synopsis
Hy&o~-5-iodo-2J-dimdimethoxyd-methylbenzoic acid (1) and 5-bromo-4-hydroxy-2,3-dimethoxy-6-methylbenzoic acid (2) are the polysubstituted aromatic carboxylic aciakfoundin calichemicin antibiotics.' The title compounds are synthesized on preparative scale from readily available methyl 4-0-bensylorsellinate (3) in six steps without any chromatographic separation needed [(I) : 41 %I, (2) : 44 %, overall yield]. The calichemicins produced by Micromospora echinospora ssp. calichensis represent anew class of antitumor antibiotics witb an enediyne moiety. Tbe biological activity of the calichemicins is extraordinary, they ate approximately 4000-foldmoreactive againstmurinemmorsthanadriamycin 'a. Consequently they ate very interesting target mole-
