Spectroscopic evidence suggests the presence of a highly strained ether ring (Fig. 1)(possibly an epoxide) in the C 12-subunit of the previously determined partial structure 2a (Fig. 2) of the major neocarzinostatin chromophore (NCS-Chrom A) which completes assignment of all the oxygens in the molecule. The main product from mercaptan treatment suggests opening of the ether ring involving the addition of one molecule of mercaptan as well as reduction of the C 12-substructure, whereas a parallel two-step reduction occurs on NaBH 4 treatment. Both reactions occur with rearrangement of the C 12-substructure and the implication for the mechanism of action of NCS-Chrom A in DNA strand scission activity is discussed. The evidence suggests a downward revision of the molecular formula for NCS-Chrom A as well as minor components B and C by two protons.
