Abstract

Rl= CH3, Rz= H), hereafter referred to as w-methylpantothenic acid, was reported recently.'The study of w-methylpantothenic acid was undertaken to determine the effect of R1 substituents on the activity of pantothenic acid toward lactic acid bacteria. Although most analogs of pantothenic acid possess little or no activity, two are partially active as growth promoters. Thus,
