Hydrazidomycins, cytotoxic alkylhydrazides from Streptomycesatratus

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2011 Oct 1;21(19):5839-41. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2011.07.108. Epub 2011 Aug 4.

Abstract

Three unusual alkyhydrazide natural products, named hydrazidomycin A (1), B (2) and C (3), were isolated from the chloroform extract of a Streptomycesatratus culture, and their structures were elucidated by MS and NMR techniques. Hydrazidomycins A-C exhibited moderate to strong cytotoxic activities in a panel of 42 cell lines, with hydrazidomycin A being the most potent compound (mean IC(50)=0.37 μM).
