A process for preparing a compound of the formula (I), ** (See formula) ** or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein: R 10 is hydrogen or acyl; X is H; and Y is OR7; wherein R7 is monosaccharide, disaccharide, alkyl, arylalkyl or heteroarylalkyl, each of which is optionally substituted, or acyl or C (O) NR8R9; where R8 and R9 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydroxy, alkyl, heteroalkyl, alkoxide, aryl, arylalkyl, heteroaryl and heteroarylalkyl, each of which is optionally substituted, and dimethylaminoalkyl, acyl, sulfonyl, ureido and carbamoyl ; or R8 and R9 are taken together with the attached nitrogen to form an optionally substituted heterocycle; or X and Y are taken together with the carbon attached to form carbonyl; V is C (O), C (>; = NR11), CH (NR12R13), or N (R14) CH2; where N (R14) is adhered to C-10 carbon; where R11 is hydroxy or alkoxide; R12 and R13 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydroxy, alkyl, alkoxide, heteroalkyl, aryl, arylalkyl, heteroaryl, and heteroarylalkyl, each of which is optionally substituted, and dimethylaminoalkyl, acyl, sulfonyl, ureido and carbamoyl ; R14 is hydrogen, hydroxy, alkyl, alkoxide, heteroalkyl, aryl, arylalkyl, heteroaryl, or heteroarylalkyl, each of which is optionally substituted, or dimethylaminoalkyl, acyl, sulfonyl, ureido or carbamoyl; W is H, F, Cl, Br, I, or OH; A is CH2, C (O), C (O) O, C (O) NH, S (O) 2, S (O) 2NH, or C (O) NHS (O) 2; B is (CH2) n where n is an integer from 0 to 10; or an unsaturated carbon chain of 2 to 10 carbons; and C is hydrogen, hydroxy, alkyl, alkoxide, heteroalkyl, aryl, arylalkyl, heteroaryl, or heteroarylalkyl, each of which is optionally substituted, or acyl, acyloxide, sulfonyl, ureido, or carbamoyl; the process comprising ** (See formula) ** ...Un procedimiento para preparar un compuesto de la fórmula (I), **(Ver fórmula)** o una sal farmacéuticamente aceptable de la misma, donde: R10 es hidr
