Abstract
This paper describes synthetic modifications of the C-19 position of t uberactinomycin B (viomycin) and related analogs. The in vitro antibac terial activity of selected analogs against Pasteurella multocida. Esc herichia coil and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is also discussed. Although C-19 arylation and thiolation did not improve anti bacterial activity, C-19 benzyl carbamates, benzyl- and phenyl ureas w ere found to be more potent than the parent antibiotic.
