Saccharothrixones A鈥揅 (1鈥?b>3), three new aromatic polyketide seco-tetracenomycins, and saccharothrixone D (4), a new tetracenomycin analogue possessing opposite configurations at all of the stereogenic centers, were isolated from the marine-derived actinomycete Saccharothrix sp. 10-10. Compounds 1鈥?b>3 represent the first examples of seco-tetracenomycins where the quinone ring B is cleaved and re-formed into a furanone ring. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses and ECD calculations. The absolute configuration of 4 was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Saccharothrixone D (4) showed in vitro cytotoxic activity against the HepG2 cancer cell line with an IC50 value of 7.5 渭M.
