title: Preparation and in vitro antibacterial activity of 9-O-glycosyloxime derivatives of erythromycin A, a new class of macrolide antibiotics.
abstract: 9-O-Glycosyloxime derivatives of erythromycin A have been synthesized and their in vitro antibacterial activity compared with that of erythromycin A (1). This new class of macrolide antibiotics showed reduced antibacterial spectrum. However, some derivatives were as or more active than erythromycin A (1) against strains, responsible for respiratory track infections, such as Haemophilus influenzae, Moraxella catarrhalis or Streptococcus pneumoniae.
