2 Antibiotics from Streptomyces Et 2 S Combination therapy against staphylococci and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium, administered intravenously, approved in Dalfopristin (Type A) Quinupristin (Type B) Synercid -Type A and Type B streptogramins act in synergy; the in vitro activity of the mixture is at least 10 times greater than the sum of the individual activities. -Both Type A and Type B streptogramins inhibit protein synthesis via action on the peptidyltransferase domain of 50S ribosomal subunits. -The compounds bind specifically to non-overlapping regions of the ribosome in a 1:1 stoichiometry. -Binding of Type A antibiotics increases the binding affinity for Type B antibiotics, but the opposite scenario does not occur.

11 Summary and utlook The antibiotic ( )-Virginiamycin M 2 was synthesized in 19 steps and 6.0% overall yield from the optically active (E) chiral silane. The longest linear sequence was 10 steps. Key transformations include application of crotyl silane addition toward a vinylogous aldol product, a regio- and stereo-selective titanium mediated alkyne-alkyne coupling reaction, and a samarium diodide mediated Barbiertype cyclization. The 23-membered macrocycle is the largest ring reported to be synthesized by a Barbier type reaction to date. lissa Wipf Group Page 11 of 11 9/26/2010
