Anthraquinone derivatives from Micromonospora rhodorangea

Nat Prod Res. 2009;23(6):533-8. doi: 10.1080/14786410600898961.

Abstract

From the fermentation broths of the actinomycete Micromonospora rhodorangea, four anthraquinone derivatives (1-4) were isolated, of which 2-ethyl-1,8-dihydroxy-3-methyl-anthraquinone (1) and 3,8-dihydroxy-1-propylanthraquinone (3) were determined as new compounds. Their structures were established by using extensive spectroscopic data analyses. 2-ethyl-1-hydroxy-8-methoxy-3-methyl anthraquinone (2) was isolated from actinomycetes for the first time and its NMR data was assigned.
