A new antitumor antibiotic SF2575 has been isolated from a culture filtrate of Streptomyces sp. SF2575. The molecular formula was determined to be C40H43NO15 by elemental analysis, mass and 13C NMR spectral analyses. The spectral data revealed SF2575 to be a new tetracycline antibiotic. It was active against Gram-positive bacteria and exhibited antitumor activity against P388 leukemia in mice.
The structure of a new antitumor antibiotic SF2575, has been determined by spectroscopic analyses of the antibiotic and its alkaline degradation products. The relative stereochemistry has been confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The antibiotic has a 2-naphthacenecarboxamide carbon skelton which is structurally related to the tetracycline antibiotics and it is unique by bearing C-glycoside, salicyclic acid and angelic acid moieties.
A new antibiotic SF2487 has been isolated from the culture broth of Actinomadura sp. SF2487. The structure of antibiotic SF2487 was determined by spectroscopic analyses of the sodium salt and X-ray diffraction analysis of the silver salt. The antibiotic represents a new member of polyether group antibiotics known as the acyltetronic acid type 4. The antibiotic is weakly active against Gram-positive bacteria and exhibits antiviral activity against influenza virus in vitro.
