3',4',-Dideoxykanamycin B, the kanamycin B derivative that is active against resistant bacteria, was prepared from kanamycin B via N-tosylation, 3',4'-O-sulphonylation, 3',4'-unsaturation, and hydrogenation. The unsaturated intermediate was obtained from the 3',4'-di-O-sulphonyl derivatives by the action of sodium iodide in N,N-dimethylformamide; if zinc dust was added in this reaction, aziridine derivatives were formed. Removal of the tosyl group was successfully performed by using sodium in ammonia-ethylamine.
