Research progress on indanomycin natural products / 药学实践杂志

ABSTRACT

Indanomycins are a class of secondary metabolites of microorganisms with a trans-tetrahydroindan (indane) ring. These compounds generally have good antibacterial, insecticidal and antitumor biological activities, which have caused wide interest for medicinal chemists and biologists. This review summarizes the research progress of the discovery, biological activity, chemical synthesis and biosynthesis of indanomycin compounds since 1979 and provides scientific reference for the research and development of indanomycin antibiotics.
