title: Dihydropyrimidinones--a new class of anti-staphylococcal antibiotics.
abstract: We report the synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of new derivatives of natural dipeptide antibiotic TAN-1057 A, B. In the course of this program, we identified novel analogues of the natural product that display similar antibacterial activity and showed improved tolerability.
