ABSTRACT:
(.+-.)4-demethoxy-6(and-11-)-deoxydaunomycinone which are starting materials for anthracycline antitumor antibiotics are prepared by reacting 1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride with an alcohol of the formula ROH, wherein R is lower alkyl, substituted lower alkyl or aryl to form a monoester, subjecting the monoester to a Friedel-Crafts reaction with acetyl chloride, followed by mild alkaline treatment, to give the corresponding .alpha.,.beta. unsaturated ketone, catalytically reducing same to form the corresponding 4-acetyl-perhydrophthalate reacting the latter with 1,4-dimethoxynaphthalone in the presence of tritluoroacetic anhydride and trifluoroacetic acid to form a mixture of two isomeric compounds, submitting said mixture of isomers to a catalytic reduction of the benzylic carbonyl function, followed by treatment thereof with sulphuric acid at room temperature to afford a mixture of tetracyclic isomers, treating the mixture of tetracyclic isomers with sulphuric acid at 80.degree. C. for one hour to give a 1:1 mixture of the racemic anthracyclinones above mentioned.
