Abstract

A new Antibiotic, named seitomycin (1c), and the known microbial metabolite tetrangulol methyl ether (2) were found in the ethyl acetate extract of two terrestrial Streptomyces sp. isolates. The structure of the new Antibiotic was elucidated by spectroscopic studies and by comparison of the NMR data with the structurally related hatomarubigin C (1a) and SM-196 B (1b). Seitomycin (1c) showed moderate antimicrobial and weak phytotoxic activity, similar to tetrangulol methyl ether (2).
