K. Tsuchiya et al., GUALAMYCIN, A NOVEL ACARICIDE PRODUCED BY STREPTOMYCES SP NK11687 .2.STRUCTURAL ELUCIDATION, Journal of antibiotics, 48(7), 1995, pp. 630-634
A novel acaricide, gualamycin was isolated from the culture broth of S
treptomyces sp. NK 11687. The structure of gualamycin was determined t
o be (2R,3S,4S)-2-O-[4-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-beta-D- 5S)-3,4-dihydroxy-5-
hydroxy-methylpyrrolidin-2-yl] butanoic acid by FAB-MS, H-1 and C-13 N
MR, COSY, HMQC, HMBC, IR, X-ray crystallographic analyses and syntheti
c studies.
