The invention is based on the discovery of a new class of heterocyclic compounds having, for example, antibacterial properties. The D-Ala-D-Ala ligase enzyme is a critical pathway enzyme in the bacterial cell-wall synthesis. The compounds can bind to and inhibit the enzyme D-Ala-D-Ala ligase. The new compounds' activity combined with their ability to cross bacterial cell membranes makes them suitable for use as antibacterial drugs or other antibacterial applications.

Microorganisms isolated from soil enriched with chitin or collagen were found to be very effective in controlling soil nematodes, probably by destroying their eggs or egg-shells. Pure culture of such microorganisms were prepared. These microorganisms are formulated into solid or liquid nematicidal compositions and as such used for combatting soil-nematode infestations.
