A 6a-(3',4'-dichlorophenylamino) analog of viomycin was uncovered by a
high-throughput screen against the animal health pathogen Pasteurella
haemolytica, and has served as a novel lead structure for our infecti
ous disease programs. We report herein the synthesis and activity of a
nalogs of tuberactinomycins and capreomycin that are active against Pa
steurella spp., methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, and vanco
mycin-resistant enterococci. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
