Straightforward Syntheses of Furanomycin Derivatives and their Biological Evaluation
摘要:
Several types of furanomycin analogues were synthesized and investigated with respect to their antibacterial activity. Two different synthetic pathways were developed, based on aldol reactions/ring closing metathesis and an ester enolate Claisen rearrangement. Only the natural product and its desmethyl derivative showed antibacterial activity, pointing towards a narrow structure-activity relationship. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
