Abstract

A series of new echinocandin-like cyclolipohexapeptides were designed and total synthesized via solution phase [3+ 3]-segment coupling strategy with an attempt to improve antifungal activity. The designed compounds showed potent antifungal activities with broad spectrum. In particular, 11 compounds (ie 28a–e, 28g, 28i–j, 29a, 29c and 29e) showed better in vitro antifungal activities against Candida albicans or Aspergillus fumigatus than ...
