title: Ferroverdins, inhibitors of cholesteryl ester transfer protein produced by Streptomyces sp. WK-5344. II. Structure elucidation.
abstract: The structures of ferroverdins B and C, novel inhibitors of cholesteryl ester transfer protein, were elucidated by spectroscopic studies including various NMR measurements. They are the complex between one Fe2+ and three ligands, that is, two common p-vinylphenyl-3-nitroso-4-hydroxybenzoates and one hydroxy p-vinylphenyl-3-nitroso-4-hydroxybenzoate for ferroverdin B and one carboxylic acid p-vinylphenyl-3-nitroso-4-hydroxybenzoate for ferroverdin C.
