| Mannopeptimicins are cyclic hexa-peptides with a disaccharide side chain, which possess potent antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria with good activity against multi drug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. The disaccharide fragment of Mannopeptimycin is known to be the key to activity which has been synthesized in 7 steps from tyrosine in 37% overall yield using our de novo approach to carbohydrate synthesis. Herein, we will describe our recent efforts toward the total synthesis of Mannopeptimycin analogues from corresponding amino acids. |
