Abstract

A putative antibacterial and antifungal compound, (R)-2-methylheptyl isonicotinate, was synthesized via reductive lactone alkylation of (R)-4-methyldihydrofuran-2(3H)-one. Structural characterisation data as well as bioassay results (with Bacillus subtilis or Escherichia coli) contradict those previously reported
