Abstract
Tenebrathin (1), a new C-5-substituted γ-pyrone with a nitroaryl side chain, was isolated from the rare actinomycete Streptoalloteichus tenebrarius NBRC 16177. The chemical structure of 1 was elucidated by a spectroscopic analysis using the crystalline sponge method of crystallization-free X-ray crystallography. The biosynthetic origin of the unusual C-5-substituted γ-pyrone in 1 was revealed by a 13C-labeling experiment. Compound 1 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against several cancer cell lines and likely targets some protein kinases.
