Abstract

New antibiotics, dynemicins O (3), P (4) and Q (5), were isolated from the culture broth of Micromonospora chersina M956-1, the dynemicin A (1)-producing strain. An ethyl acetate extract of a tank culture was roughly separated by a column of Diaion SP-800 and was further purified by combining a variety of column chromatographies to afford a few mg of compounds 3, 4 and 5. Their structures, analyzed from the spectral data, had a bridging phenylene group, a vic-diol and an oxo group in place of the respective 1,5-diyn-3-ene bridge, the epoxide ring and the carboxyl group in dynemicin A. Their biological activities were evaluated against bacteria and tumor cells.
