b) Description of the Related Art
In the field of antifungal agents, amphoterin B or the like has heretofore been used, for example, in treatment for mycosis profundus. However, azole type synthetic antifungal agents have recently come to be developed. Even in these azole type agents, however, there has been an eager demand for development of a far excellent antifungal agent from the viewpoint of its effect for patients depressed in immune function.
For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open (KOKAI) No. 70885/1982 discloses a triazole compound as an azole type synthetic antifungal agent. Besides, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open (KOKAI) No. 224689/1985 discloses a (1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-methyl-carbinol derivative.
The present invention intends to provide an antifungal agent more effective than the conventional antifungal agents and intermediates therefor.

The compound (213) (223 mg; 0.507 mmol) was dissolved in 5.0 ml of toluene, and 141 mg (0.609 mmol) of silver oxide and 84 .mu.l (0.710 mmol) of benzyl bromide were added to the solution, followed by stirring for 7 days at room temperature. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite, and the resultant filtrate was washed with ether. The filtrate was concentrated and then purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluted with hexane and then hexane:ethyl acetate=12:1), thereby obtaining 66 mg (yield: 44%) of a compound (219) as a colorless oily product.

In 2 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran, were dissolved 66 mg (0.23 mmol) of the compound (219) and 18 .mu.l (0.25 mmol) of chloroiodomethane. The resultant solution was chilled to -78.degree. C. To this solution, 0.16 ml (0.24 mmol) of a 1.5M diethyl ether solution of a methyllithium-lithium bromide complex was added dropwise. The resulting mixture was then heated to room temperature and-stirred for 2.5 hours. A saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride was added to the reaction mixture, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The resultant organic layer was washed with saturated saline, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and then concentrated under reduced pressure, thereby obtaining 60 mg (yield: 86%) of a compound (220) as an oily product.
Incidentally, the compound (220) is a 1:1 mixture of diastereomers.

Preparation Examples
Preparation examples from the compound (202) to a final compound will hereinafter be described.
Preparation Example 8 ##STR323##
To 33 g of the compound (202), 33 ml of H.sub.2 O and 172 ml of O,O-diethyl dithiophosphate were added, and the mixture was heated and refluxed for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was cooled back to room temperature and added with water, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The resultant ethyl acetate layer was washed with water and with saturated saline and dried over magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled out. To the resulting residue, 70 ml of diethyl ether were added to form crystals. The thus-formed crystals were collected by filtration to obtain the intended compound (35 g) as a crude product. The crude product (13.9 g) was dissolved in ethyl acetate, and the solution was washed with a 5% aqueous solution of sodium carbonate, and the solvent was then distilled out. The resultant residue was recrystallized from diethyl ether and diisopropyl ether, thereby obtaining 7.8 g of the intended compound (221).

Experimental Example 3
Five-membered Groups of ICR mice were infected through their tail veins with a Candida albicans MCY 8622 strain (2.times.10.sup.6 cfu/mouse). After 1 hour, the above compound (223) according to the present application was orally administered in a dose of 2.5 mg or 10 mg per kg of a mouse to the respective groups of mice. Observation was carried out for 7 days to calculate the average number of surviving days in each group. This average number was used as an index indicative of antifungal activity in vivo.
�Result!
The result of the experiment is shown in the following Table 5.
