pirlimycin [Supplementary Concept]
RN given refers to (mono-HCl(2S-cis)-isomer)
Date introduced: August 16, 1982
Lincosamides
A family of LINCOMYCIN-related glycosides that contain a pyrrolidine ring linked via an amide-bond to a pyranose moiety. Individual members of this family are defined by the arrangement of specific constituent groups on the lyncomycin molecule. Many lincosamides are ANTIBIOTICS produced by a variety STREPTOMYCES species.
Year introduced: 2009
Pyrrolidines
Compounds also known as tetrahydropyridines with general molecular formula (CH2)4NH.
Year introduced: 1966
Lincomycin
An antibiotic produced by Streptomyces lincolnensis var. lincolnensis. It has been used in the treatment of staphylococcal, streptococcal, and Bacteroides fragilis infections.
Year introduced: 1966(1964)
Heterocyclic Compounds, 1-Ring
Organic compounds that contain a ring structure made up of carbon and one or more additional elements such as nitrogen and oxygen.
Year introduced: 1998
Heterocyclic Compounds
Cyclic compounds that include atoms other than carbon in their ring structure.
Glycosides
Any compound that contains a constituent sugar, in which the hydroxyl group attached to the first carbon is substituted by an alcoholic, phenolic, or other group. They are named specifically for the sugar contained, such as glucoside (glucose), pentoside (pentose), fructoside (fructose), etc. Upon hydrolysis, a sugar and nonsugar component (aglycone) are formed. (From Dorland, 28th ed; From Miall's Dictionary of Chemistry, 5th ed)
Carbohydrates
A class of organic compounds composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen in a ratio of Cn(H2O)n. The largest class of organic compounds, including STARCH; GLYCOGEN; CELLULOSE; POLYSACCHARIDES; and simple MONOSACCHARIDES.
