Abstract
A LC-MS-guided screening led to the isolation of two new streptimidone derivatives (2 and 3) containing a glutarimide ring and two glutarimide ring-opened compounds (4 and 5) along with a known glutarimide-containing polyketide, streptimidone (1) from Streptomyces sp. W3002 strain. Their structures were elucidated by MS and NMR spectroscopic analyses and by comparison with data from the literature. Compound 2 is a non-hydroxylated analog at the C-5 position of streptimidone. The structure of 3 was determined as a streptimidone derivative possessing the α, β-unsaturated ketone moiety at positions C-5 and C-6. Compound 4 had similar chemical shifts and splitting patterns with 3, but the glutarimide ring is opened. Compound 5 closely resembles that of 4 with the only difference being the existence of an additional methoxy group instead of an amide group. Streptimidone (1) and 3 showed weak cytotoxic activity against three human cancer cell lines, respectively.
