Pyrrolomycins C, D and E, new members of pyrrolomycins

J Antibiot (Tokyo). 1983 Oct;36(10):1263-7. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.36.1263.

Abstract

Pyrrolomycins C, D and E, new members of pyrrolomycins produced by Actinosporangium vitaminophilum SF-2080, have been isolated by chromatography on a basic alumina column. Three antibiotics have chlorinated pyrrole nuclei linked directly or via carbonyl function to the dichlorophenol moiety. Pyrrolomycins C and E are active against Gram-positive bacteria, while the spectrum of pyrrolomycin D is broad including Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria and fungi.
