Mycolic acids biological activity

The deacetylation of this product with sodium methoxide or hydroxyl-amine (mycolic acid esters react very slowly with hydroxylamine) gives, in rather low yield, a 6,6 -di-0-(3-hydroxy-x-methoxymycolanoyl)trehalose, m.p. 40-42°, [a]D -f 132°, CissHsvoOi 10 CH2 (9b), with an infrared spectrum identical with that of the natural cord-factor the biological activity of this compound was indistinguishable from that of natural cord-factor. ... [Pg.215]

With a view to studying the influence of the C-3-hydroxyl group of the mycolic acids on the biological activity of trehalose esters, trehalose was also esterified with the unsaturated acid (18) obtained by dehydration of the C44-mycolic acid (14). [Pg.217]

It was believed for a long time that biological activity was due essentially to the mycolic acids as typical constituents of mycobacteria. [Pg.3]
