FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention refers to method of producing anthracycline carminomycine of formula from anthracycline daunorubicin. Method involves reaction of daunorubicin of formula , or N-substituted daunorubicin of formula , where Prot=acyl, acyl halide, carbonate with a weak Lewis acid selected from a group comprising TiHal4, BHal3, MgHal2, where Hal=F, Cl, Br, I, for demethylation of the 4-methyoxy group in daunorubicin of formula 2, or N-substituted daunorubicin of formula 3.
EFFECT: invention enables to obtain carminomycine using a method which does not lead to destruction of the C-7 glycoside bond and with fewer number of synthesis steps.
