Patent number: 7026270Abstract: This invention concerns new biocidal compounds of formula (I) wherein R is H or CH3. Of particular interest are two isomers that are named malayamycin A and desmethylmalayamycin A. These isomers, which may be prepared by growing under controlled conditions a previously unknown strain of micro-organism from the species Streptomyces malaysiensis, are characterised by nmr and mass spectroscopic data. They have biocidal activity, including anti-fungal, anti-viral and anti-cancer activity, and are of special interest for use in agriculture, horticulture, animal and human health.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2003Date of Patent: April 11, 2006Assignee: Syngenta Crop Protection, Inc.Inventors: Jill Patricia Benner, Bettina Gertrud Henriette Boehlendorf, Martin Richard Kipps, Nicolas Eugene Paul Lambert, Riet Luck, Louis-Pierre Molleyres, Snezana Neff, Traugott Christoph Schuez, Paul David Stanley
