Abstract
Sir: Antibiotic nystatin, produced by Streptomyces noursei, is a complex containing three biologically active components designated as nystatins Al5 A2 and A3. It was established that all of them were polyene macrolides possessing a diene-tetraene chromophore and glycosidically linked mycosamine moiety1~3). The structure of the main component of the complex, nystatin Al5 was assigned4>5). Structural studies on unresolved nystatin complex were also reported^. Following the preliminary studies on the structure of nystatin A37) in present paper we report the data on the complete structure of this antibiotic.
