4-formylaminoantipyrine | A pyrazolone that is 1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one substituted by a formaylamino group at position 4, methyl groups at positions 1 and 5 and a phenyl group at position 2. It is a metabolite of aminophenazone. | 4-formylaminoantipyrine |
antimycin a | A nine-membered bis-lactone having methyl substituents at the 2- and 6-positions, an n-hexyl substituent at the 8-position, an acyloxy substituent at the 7-position and an aroylamido substituent at the 3-position. It is produced by Streptomyces bacteria and has found commercial use as a fish poison. | antimycin A |
benphothiamine | A thioester that is a synthetic analogue of thiamine obtained by acylative cleavage of the thiazole ring and O-phospohorylation. | benfotiamine |
coelichelin | A tetrapeptide hydroxamate siderophore that is isolated from Streptomyces coelicolor. | coelichelin |
