The identification of the mechanistically novel, highly potent antitumor agents calicheamicin (I)['w and esperamicin (2)"', dl as well as neocarzinostatin [2a1 and dynemycin [''] has spurred a variety of initiatives in synthesis,[31 bio~ imulation,[~~ and computation.[', 61 An ultimate goal of the creative interactivity of such efforts is the development of more accessible compounds which manifest higher therapeutic indices than do the natural products.['] The aglycone sector of 1 is recognized as the source of the cytoxic diradical effector species."] Our laboratory has completed the synthesis of the fully functionalized aglycone, calicheamicinone (3).[" l Experiments conducted with the synthetic racemate,["] showed it to retain the DNA-cleaving properties of the drug 1 though with significantly reduced potency. Suitably activated aglycone retains some of the remarkable capacity for direct hydrogen abstraction from C-H bonds of oligonucleotide constructs [1 a, b1 however, it lacks any significant sequence selectivity in DNA cleavage of the type manifested by calicheamicin.[12~ 13] Recently, enzymatic resolution of intermediates en route to 3 and the descarbamoyl version thereof has been achieved.[14 a. b1 This advance provides access to enantiomerically pure''late''intermediates in the synthetic sequence. Of course the use of aglycone intermediates of unambiguous absolute configuration obviates the structural ambiguities arising from the employment of a racemate as a coupling component.
