Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound named Mumbaistatin, its pharmaceutically acceptable salts and derivatives, a process for its production, and its use as a pharmaceutical. Mumbaistatin is obtainable by cultivation of the microorganism HIL-008003 (DSM 11641). Mumbaistatin is a glucose-6-phosphate translocase inhibitor and can be used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. The present invention further relates to a process for the production of Mumbaistatin, to the microorganism HIL-008003 (DSM 11641), to the use of Mumbaistatin and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts and derivatives as pharmaceuticals, in particular to their use in the treatment of diabetes mellitus, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising Mumbaistatin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof.

Abstract: Derived macrocyclic compounds of the formula I ##STR1## where R is hydrogen, methyl or certain acyl groups, the dotted line in the 9,10-position is a saturated bond or, in the event that R is methyl, is also a double bond, and X is a keto group, or a substituted or unsubstituted oxime, hydrazone or semicarbazone, represent effective microbicides for controlling plant diseases. They can be employed in the customary formulation as agrochemical agents.

Abstract: Novel macrocyclic compounds of the formual I ##STR1## where the dotted line in the 9,10-position is a saturated bond or a double bond, alternatively, and R is hydrogen, methyl or certain acyl radicals, and R.sub.o is hydrogen, halogen, azido, thiol, hydroxyl or --OY, where Y is, among other radicals, an ether radical, a silyl group, a sulfonyl group, a sugar radical or a (thiol)acyl radical, and R being methyl if there is a double bond in the 9,10-position, have microbicidal properties for the control of phytopathogenic microorganisms. They can be employed in the customary formulation for the control of plant disease.
