Abstract
The present invention is directed to certain glycopeptide dimers in which two glycopeptide units are covalently linked to one another through their disaccharide amine, via a linking radical. This invention is also directed to the monomeric intermediates. All of these compounds are useful as antibacterials, especially for the control of gram positive bacteria; the compounds are particularly useful for the control of resistant bacterial strains, such as vancomycin-resistant-enterococci ("VRE").
