Abstract

Detailed studies on the solution conformation of polyene antibiotic, filipin III (I) using CD and proton NMR techniques have been carried out. In DMSO, filipin III exhibits concentration-dependent aggregation - monomeric at lower and oligomeric at higher concentrations of the antibiotic. At concentrations used for $^1H$ NMR studies $(6 \times 10^{-3} M)$ the molecular coexists as monomeric and oligomeric species. However, titration experiments indicated that, in a mixed solvent system of DMSO:methanol (2:3 vol./vol.) the antibiotic exists only as a monomer. Complete $^1H$ NMR assignments and the conformation of the monomer filipin III have been detected by the combined use of DQFCOSY and ROESY experiments in DMSO:methanol solvent system.
