PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL DESCRIPTION
Daunorubicin (R.P. 13 057) is an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces
coeruleorubidis. It is the
hydrochloride of 4-methoxy 6, 9, 11-trihydroxy 7, 8, 9, 10-tetrahydro
(2, 3, 6-tridesoxy 3-amino L-
lyxo-1-hexopyranosyl) 7-oxy-9-acetyl 5, 12-naphthacenequinone. Its
structural formula is as
follows:
Molecular weight: 563.98 g/mol
The hydrochloride is an orange-red crystalline powder. It is freely
soluble in water and in methanol.
It is slightly soluble in alcohol and chloroform. It is practically
insoluble in acetone.
PROPERTIES
Daunorubicin inhibits the synthesis of nucleic acids, both by binding
desoxyribonucleic acid and by
inhibiting the reproduction of desoxyribonucleic acid and the
synthesis of ribonucleic acid in the
cell nucleus. As a result there is an interruption of cell division.
