Drug Classes (3)
Class | Description |
anthrafuran | Any organic heterotetracyclic compound consisting of a furan ring ortho-fused to an anthracene. |
lactol | Cyclic hemiacetals formed by intramolecular addition of a hydroxy group to an aldehydic or ketonic carbonyl group. They are thus 1-oxacycloalkan-2-ols or unsaturated analogues. |
versiconal | A secondary metabolite that is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of afflatoxin. Can exist as both a tricyclic anthraquinone-hydroxyaldehyde form or as a tetracyclic anthrafuran form. |
