Abstract

A series of aliphatic side-chain analogues of pseudomycin was synthesized and evaluated during the course of our side-chain SAR effort. We found that several of the pseudomycin side-chain analogues (e.g., 10) exhibited good in vitro activity against all three major fungi responsible for systemic fungal infections.
