Abstract

One-pot synthesis is applied for the first time to prepare 9-deoxo-9a-aza-9a-homoerythromycin A (AZA). Sodium borohydride is added in situ while erythromycin 6, 9-imino ether is formed by Beckmann rearrangement from erythromycin A oxime in methanol. The results show the purity and yield of products are 90.5 % and 98.0 %, respectively.
