title: Chemical combination of 6-deoxy-6-mycoloylamino-alpha,alpha-trehalose and N-acetyl-6-O-(aminoacyl)muramoyl dipeptide.
abstract: 6-Deoxy-6-mycoloylamino-alpha,alpha-trehalose, a biologically active derivative of 6,6'-di-O-mycoloyl-alpha,alpha-trehalose (TDM), and N-acetyl-6-O-(aminoacyl)-muramoyl dipeptide (MDP) were joined chemically by a succinic acid unit. The compounds synthesized showed activities that are characteristics of both TDM and MDP.
