Zusammenfassung:Ciclamycin, an antibiotic complex produced by Streptomyces capoamus , showed highly inhibitory activity against experimental tumors. By early investigations on chemical composition eta - and epsilon -pyrromycinone were identified as aglycone constituents. Further work on the glycosidic part of the complex showed that three major components, ciclamycins 1, 5 and 6 are identical with cinerubine B, cinerubine A and pyrromycin, respectively, and that one of the minor components, ciclamycin 2, is 5'''-epi-cinerubine B. This report describes the structure elucidation of two more components of the ciclamycin complex.
