Formicins, N -Acetylcysteamine-Bearing Indenone Thioesters from a Wood Ant-Associated Bacterium
6 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
Formicins A–C ( 1 – 3 ) were discovered from Streptomyces sp. associated with wood ants. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated as indenone thioesters bearing N -acetylcysteamine based on spectroscopic analysis. The configurations of 1 – 3 were determined by the analysis of ROESY correlations, the phenylglycine methyl ester method, and chemical derivatization from 3 to 2 . Formicin A inhibited the growth of...
