Abstract
Three new compounds, apocimycin A-C, were identified from a saltern-derived Micromonospora sp. strain FXY415, isolated from Dongshi saltern, Fujian, China. Their planar structures and relative configuration were confirmed mainly by analysis of 1D- and 2D- NMR spectra. Three compounds belong to 4,6,8-trimythyl nona-2,7-dienoic acid derivatives, apocimycin A also has a phenoxazine nucleus. Apocimycin A-C exhibited weak cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities. Our research showed again that microbial communities in extreme environments are a potential resource in looking for new and bioactive led compounds. Graphical abstract
