β¦ Synopsis
Kanamycin-A, discovered by Dmezawa and his coworkers (I) in 1957, is an antibiotic active against a variety of the Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, especially against the mycobacteria, and now widely used as an antituberculous agent. The structure was demonstrated independently by Japanese and American-Canadian groups (Z-5) and the absolute configuration was established by Rinehart, Tatsuoka and their associates (6).
