Abstract
Two new 6,6-spiroacetal polyketides, spirotoamides A (1) and B (2), were isolated from a microbial metabolite fraction library of Streptomyces griseochromogenes JC82-1223 by screening of structurally unique compounds based on a search of spectral database. The fraction library was constructed using a systematic separation method to efficiently discover new metabolites from microbial sources such as actinomycetes and fungi. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by 2D-NMR and mass spectrometric measurements. They belong to a class of polyketides, and contain a 6,6-spiroacetal core structure and a carboxamide group. The biosynthetic pathway of 1 and 2 is discussed in the text.
