Production of quinoline-2-methanol and quinoline-2-methanol acetate by a new species of Kitasatoa Kitasato griseophaeus.
Two metabolites have been isolated from the fermentation broth of a new species of Kitasatoa, Kitasatoa griseophaeus. These alkaloids have been identified as quinoline-2-methanol and quinoline-2-methanol acetate. The former exhibits hypoglycemic activity in the rat.
