Amycolachromones A–F, Isolated from a Streptomycin-Resistant Strain of the Deep-Sea Marine Actinomycete Amycolatopsis sp. WP1

In this study, a detailed chemical investigation of a streptomycin-resistant strain of the deep-sea marine, actinomycete Amycolatopsis sp. WP1, yielded six novel amycolachromones A–F (1–6), together with five known analogues (7–11). Amycolachromones A–B (1–2) possessed unique dimer skeletons. The structures and relative configurations of compounds 1–11 were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic data analyses combined with X-ray crystal diffraction analysis. Plausible biogenetic pathways of amycolachromones A–F were also proposed.
