title: Antifungal Sordarins. Part 4: synthesis and structure--activity relationships of 3',4'-fused alkyl-tetrahydrofuran derivatives.
abstract: A series of Sordarin derivatives bearing alkyl substituted tetrahydrofuran rings fused to C3'-C4' bond of the sugar moiety have been prepared and their antifungal properties evaluated. Most of them show remarkable antifungal activity against Candida spp and Cryptococcus neoformans.
