Abstract

We report the first total synthesis of micrococcin P2 (MP2, 1) by a diversity-oriented route that incorporates a number of refinements relative to earlier syntheses. Biological data regarding the activity of 1 against a range of human pathogens are also provided. Furthermore, we disclose a chemical property of MP2 that greatly facilitates medicinal chemistry work in the micrococcin area and describe a method to obtain MP2 by fermentation in B. subtilis.
