Abstract
New metabolites exhibiting antifungal activity were isolated from the culture liquid of Azotobacter vinelandii strain IB 4. The metabolites were characterized by IR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy and defined as sucrose polythiophosphates of tetraamine (α-D-2,3-diaminoglucopyranosyl-β-D-3,4-diaminofructofuranose).
