Abstract

Three Antibiotics possessing cytotoxic properties were isolated from a strain of Streptomyces griseus (FCRC-57). One was found to be identical with griseorhodin A. A second, FCRC-57-U, was found to be identical to griseorhodin C. FCRC-57-G is a new Antibiotic structurally related to griseorhodins A and C, and is active against KB cells in vitro. The structure of this new Antibiotic was determined using mass spectrometry, proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and synthesis.
