title: Sorbistin, a new aminoglycoside antibiotic complex of bacterial origin. III. Structure determination.
abstract: The structures of sorbistins A1, A2, B, C and D have been determined including stereo-chemistry. Sorbistins A1, A2 and B are composed of a 4-acyl-amino-4-deoxy-D-glucose and 1,4-diamino-1,4-dideoxy-D-sorbitol, the latter compound being hitherto undescribed in literature. Sorbistins C and D have the same aglycone of 1,4-diamino-1,4-dideoxy-D-sorbitol, which is linked with D-glucose and 4-amino-4-deoxy-D-glucose, respectively, through a glycosidic bond.
