Abstract
The synthesis of novel erythromycin A 9-O-(2-ethenesulfony-ethyl)-oxime and erythromycin A 9-O-(3-oxo-butyl)-oxime from erythromycin A (EA) by the Michael reaction is described and to describe the effects of transformation of ketone in position 9 of EA to an oxime ether. This transformation occurred in a single step without protecting of any functional moiety of erythromycin oxime and zero waste manner in good yield. The antibacterial screen of EA 9-O-(2-ethenesulfony-ethyl)-oxime is also reported.
