Thailandepsin A

Thailandepsin A [systematic name: (E)-(1S,5S,6R,9S,20R)-6-[(2S)-butan-2-yl]-5-hydroxy-20-[2-(methylsulfanyl)ethyl]-2-oxa-11,12-dithia-7,19,22-triazabicyclo[7.7.6]docosa-15-ene-3,8,18,21-tetraone], C23H37N3O6S3, is a newly reported [Wang et al. (2011). J. Nat. Prod. doi:10.1021/np200324x] bicyclic depsipeptide that has potent histone deacetylase inhibitory activity and broad-spectrum antiproliferative activity. The absolute configuration of thailandepsin A has been determined from the anomalous dispersion and the stereochemistry of all chiral C atoms. Intramolecular N—H...O and N—H...S hydrogen bonds occur. Intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds are observed in the crystal structure.
