Oxidation of brefeldin A.
Oxidation of the macrolide antibiotic brefeldin A with pyridinium chlorochromate adsorbed on alumina afforded [6S, 10E, 11aS, 14E]-6-methyl-2,3,6,7,8,9,11a,12-octahydro-4 H-cyclopent[f]oxacyclotridecin-1,4,13-trione together with 13-oxobrefeldin. These compounds showed higher cytotoxic activity on P388 leukemia cells than brefeldin A, brefeldin A-1,13-diacetate, brefeldin A-13-acetate, tetrahydrobrefeldin or tetrahydrobrefeldin-1,13-dione. 13-Oxobrefeldin exceeded brefeldin A in antifungal activity on Candida albicans.
