The need for new therapies to treat systemic fungal infections continues to rise. Naturally occurring hexapeptide echinocandin B (1) has shown potent antifungal activity via its inhibition of the synthesis of β-1,3 glucan, a key fungal cell wall component. Although this series of agents has been limited thus far based on their physicochemical characteristics, we have found that the synthesis of analogues bearing an aminoproline residue in the 'northwest' position imparts greatly improved water solubility (>5 mg/mL). The synthesis and structure-activity relationships (SAR) based on whole cell and upon in vivo activity of the series of compounds are reported. Copyright (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Solid phase methodology on polyamide-kieselguhr resin was used for the synthesis of six analogs of deamino carba-1 or carba-6 oxytocin with non-coded amino acids in position 2, threonine in position 4, ornithine in position 8 and without glycine in positi
