Notes:
A crystalline mixture of the antibiotics chlorothricin and dechlorothricin was isolated from a strain of Streptomyces antibioticus. By degradation 5-chloro-6-methylsalicylic acid methyl ether (from chlorothricin) and 6-methylsalicylic acid methyl-ether (from dechlorothricin) were isolated. Common degradation products of both antibiotics were 2-deoxy-D-rhamniose and an aglycone, C30H38O8, of unknown structure. The antibiotic mixtures was active against GRAM positive bacteria on syntheitc, but not on complex media.
