Ansamycins having improved pharmacological and biological properties

摘要

Ansamycins and methods of preparing and using the same are described. At least some of these ansamycins exhibit one or more of improved aqueous formulation ability, chemical stability, and bioavailability. Some of the derivatives described are dimers. These and others described can include one or more solubilizing groups that have expected merit in rendering the overall compounds useful as drugs and prodrugs.
