AI Article Synopsis

  • A new compound called levantilide C, a 20-membered macrolide, was discovered from a Micromonospora strain found in coastal waters off Chiloe, Chile.
  • The chemical structure of levantilide C was determined using NMR analysis.
  • Additionally, two known indole derivatives were isolated from the same strain, and levantilide C showed moderate activity in inhibiting the growth of various tumor cell lines.

Article Abstract

A new 20-membered macrolide named as levantilide C was isolated from the Micromonospora strain FIM07-0019 recovered from shallow coastal waters near the island of Chiloe, Chile. The chemical structure of levantilide C was elucidated on the basis of one- and two-dimensional NMR analysis. Two known indole derivatives were also isolated from this strain. Levantilide C exhibited moderate antiproliferative activity against several tumour cell lines.
