An improved general method for the preparation of methyl esters of polyene antibiotics is discussed. Using this method methyl esters of pimaricin, nystatin, eurocidin, hamycin, hamycins A and B, aureofungin, partricins A and B, candimycin, candicidin, and amphotericin B have been prepared and their physical properties are reported. The biological activities of hamycins A and B and their methyl esters are also described.
