and to the use of these compounds for controlling weeds and weed grasses in crops of useful plants.

Antibacterial small molecule compounds, termed liptins, bind to phosphatidylglycerol in bacterial plasma membranes. The small molecule compounds comprise a three-dimensional complementary binding pocket for phosphatidylglycerol, disrupting membrane function in a bacteriostatic or bactericidal manner. Methods of inhibiting bacterial growth and/or treating Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacterial infection using such compounds are also disclosed.

The present invention provides cyclic depsipeptide compounds of formula (I) and compositions comprising the compounds that are effective against parasites that harm animals. The compounds and compositions may be used for combating parasites in or on mammals and birds. The invention also provides for an improved method for eradicating, controlling and preventing parasite infestation in birds and mammals.
