Abstract

Sugar amino acid based 24-membered macrocyclic C2-symmetric cationic peptides were designed and synthesized. The cationic group was introduced in the sugar amino acids. The conformation of these cyclic compounds was ascertained through NMR techniques, which proved they were amphipathic in nature. All the compounds were bacteriolytic, showed good activity against the Gr+ve and Gr-ve bacteria, and exhibited low hemolytic activity.
