Several carbonate derivatives of hitachimycin have been synthesized and evaluated their activities including antibacterial, cytocidal against HeLa cells and in vivo antitumor against Sarcoma 180. Some of these derivatives showed higher antitumor activity than hitachimycin. Among the derivatives, 11, 15-di-O-methoxycarbonylhitachimycin (2), 11, 15-di-O-ethoxycarbonylhitachimycin (3) and 15-O-methoxycarbonylhitachimycin (9) were most effective in in vivo assay.
