Abstract

Fermentation of the microorganism Actinoplanacete sp. (MA6559), ATTC No. 53771, in the presence of the HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitor ##STR1## yields 3-[2-(benzoxazol-2-yl)ethyl]-5-(1-hydroxyethyl)-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyridinone and 3-[2-(benzoxazol-2-yl)ethyl]-5-ethyl-6-hydroxymethyl-2(1H)-pyridinone, both of which are useful in the prevention or treatment of infection by HIV and the treatment of AIDS.
