Abstract

The photolability of the antitumor antibiotic hedamycin (1) was investigated by irradiation in different solvents in the presence or in the absence of oxygen. The products formed were separated chromatographically and their structures determined by NMR spectroscopy. Photolysis of 1 in the presence of oxygen gave only one isolable product, photohedamycin A (3), where ring E of hedamycin had been transformed into an enol ether. The reaction in the absence of oxygen yielded the photohedamycins B, C, and D (5, 6, and 7, respectively). In these compounds, one of the epoxides of hedamycin had been opened reductively, and in photohedamycin D (7) the substituent at C(8) ‐ originally ring E of hedamycin ‐ was now acyclic. In addition to these compounds, the photolyses yielded a large number of unstable minor products, which could not be isolated.
