Two new compounds from Streptomyces sp. HS-NF-813.

ABSTRACT

Two new derivatives of cytotoxic substance BE-52211, designed as BE-52211D (1) and BE-52211E (2), were isolated from the fermentation broth of the strain Streptomyces sp. HS-NF-813. Their structures were determined by 1D and 2D NMR techniques, ESI-MS and comparison with data from the literature. The absolute stereochemistry of 1 was elucidated by NMR data of the Mosher ester derivatives. Compounds 1 and 2 showed moderate cytotoxic activity against three human tumor cell lines.
