Abstract

The structures of new antifungal Antibiotics, PF1163A and B, were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses of the degradation products and by X-ray crystallography of the de-2-hydroxyethyl derivative of PF1163B. Both Antibiotics consist of a 13-membered macrocyclic structure containing a derivative of N-methyl tyrosine and a hydroxy fatty acid. PF1163A differs from PF 1163B by having an additional hydroxyl group on the side chain.
