✦ Synopsis
Four novel antifungal and highly cytotoxic metabolites, the polyketide-derived acyl residue. The latter is a multiply substituted phenylundecatrienoic acid, which is found as its crocacins A-D (1-4), were isolated in our screening of the myxobacterial genus Chondromyces from strains of C. primary amide crocacin C (3). Based on 1 H coupling constants, NOEs and MM + calculations the relative crocatus and C. pediculatus. Crocacin A, B, and D (1, 2, and 4) are unusual dipeptides of glycine and a 6-aminohexenoic configuration of the asymmetric centers and their preferred conformation are proposed for the crocacins. or -hexadienoic acid, which is N-protected by a complex

A novel highly cytotoxic metabolite, apicularen A (1), was isolated in a screening of the myxobacterial genus Chondromyces. The structure of 1 is characterized by a salicylic acid residue as part of a 10-membered lactone, which bears an acylenamine side chain. Compound 1 is an inhibitor of the proli
