The mniopetals, new inhibitors of reverse transcriptases from a Mniopetalum species (basidiomycetes). II. Structure elucidation

J Antibiot (Tokyo). 1994 Sep;47(9):1017-24. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.47.1017.

Abstract

The structures of six new drimance sesquiterpenoids, mniopetals A-F, were elucidated by a combination of chemical and spectroscopic methods. The mniopetals are inhibitors of RNA-directed DNA-polymerases.
