Three antibiotics were isolated from a CH2Cl2 extract of the liquid culture of Pseudomonas fluorescens strain PFM2. Two of the antibiotics were identified as 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol and pyoluterin. The structure elucidation, absolute stereochemistry, synthesis, and biological activities of the new antibiotic (+)-(S)- dihydroaeruginoic acid [1] are reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
