Biological glycosidation of macrolide aglycones. I. Isolation and characterization of 5-O-mycaminosyl narbonolide and 9-dihydro-5-O-mycaminosyl narbonolide.

Abstract
Glycosidation of narbonolide with mycaminose was attempted by feeding narbonolide during the fermentation of a parent or a mutant strain of Streptomyces platensis, a producer of 16-membered macrolide antibiotics, platenomycins. Two new compounds I and II were isolated from the fermentation broth and identified as 5-O-mycaminosyl narbonolide (I) and 9-dihydro-5-O-mycaminosyl narbonolide (II), respectively. Physiochemical and antimicrobial [antibacterial] properties of I and II are also referred to.
