4''''-(Pentyloxy)-[1,1'':4'',1''''-terphenyl]-4-carboxylic Acid is an intermediate used in the synthesis of Anidulafungin (A673000) which is a semisynthetic echinocandin that inhibits glucan synthase, an enzyme important in the formation of (1→3)-β-D-glucan, a major fungal cell wall component, and thus is used as antifungal drug.
