Abstract
Three pairs of enantiomers (1–3)—the new 12R-aloesol (1a) and two new fatty acids (2 and 3)—and one new natural product (4) together three known compounds (5–7) were isolated from a coral-reef-derived Streptomyces sp. SCSIO 66814. Their structures were determined through extensive spectroscopic analysis, chiral analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Compounds 2 and 3 were presumed to be intermediates for further generating homononactic acid (5) and nonactic acid, and the latter two molecules were able to act as precursors to form macrotetrolides with remarkable biological activity. The isolation of related precursors, compounds 2–5, provided more evidence to support the proposal of a plausible biosynthetic pathway for nonactic acid and its homologs. Additionally, (+)-1 exhibited a weak activity against DPPH radicals.
