Abstract

Four hemisynthetic derivatives were prepared from maculosin (cyclo(L-Pro-L-Tyr)), isolated from Lysobacter capsici AZ78 and having anti-oomycete activity against some fungi pathogenic crop plants. A very strong antifungal activity was showed by the azido derivatives of maculosin, which could have pratical application in agriculture as safe fungicide.
