Studies on Streptomyces Antibiotic, Cycloheximide. XVIII. Isomerization Study of Cycloheximides and Thermal Degradation of Naramycin-B. Chemical Support of the Proposed Absolute Configuration of Cycloheximides.

Abstract

Thermal degradation and isomerization studies on cycloheximide and its stereoisomers were carried out, and the results obtained did support chemically the absolute configuration of cycloheximides proposed previously.
