Journal of Asian natural products research 2017 AprSome novel josamycin derivatives bearing an arylalkyl-type side chain were designed and synthesized. By HWE or Wittig reaction, 16-aldehyde group of josamycin analogs were converted into unsaturated carbonyl compounds. They were evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activities against a panel of respiratory pathogens. 8b and 8e exhibited comparable activities against a panel of respiratory pathogens, especially to resistant ones in the series of desmycarosyl josamycin analogs. Among of all the target molecules, 21 showed the best antibacterial activities.
