Abstract

Ten undocumented carbazole derivatives (2-11) along with the reported analogue (1) were isolated from the mangrove-derived Streptomyces sp. OUCMDZ-5511, cultured with NaBr-supplemented liquid medium. Compounds 1-7 are brominated carbazoles, and 8, 10, and 11 feature an additional thiazole or 2,3-dihydro-1,4-oxathiine rings, respectively. Their structures were identified through spectroscopic techniques, computational chemistry, and X-ray crystallography. Notably, compounds 6 and 8 effectively inhibited immune cell migration, indicating anti-inflammatory activity in vivo, potentially via MyD88/NF-κB pathways, as suggested for compound 6.
