Oxidation of Isodrimeninol with PCC Yields Drimane Derivatives with Activity against <i>Candida</i> Yeast by Inhibition of Lanosterol 14-Alpha Demethylase

Oxidation of Isodrimeninol with PCC Yields Drimane Derivatives with Activity against <i>Candida</i> Yeast by Inhibition of Lanosterol 14-Alpha Demethylase

<i>Candida</i> species cause an opportunistic yeast infection called Candidiasis, which is responsible for more than 50,000 deaths every year around the world. Effective treatments against candidiasis caused by non-albicans <i>Candida</i> species such as <i>C. glabrata,...
