A new phenylamine-incorporated angucyclinone (1) featuring a unique 1-phenylbenzo[ cd]indol-3(1 H)-one moiety was discovered from marine Streptomyces sp. PKU-MA00218. A series of experimental investigations identified that 1 was produced from the nonenzymatic conversion of a C-ring-cleaved angucyclinone (2) with phenylamine. Utilizing the nonenzymatic conversion, 18 phenylamine-incorporated angucyclinone derivatives with halogen, methyl, methoxy, and carboxy substitutions were efficiently generated under mild conditions. These results highlighted the impressive roles of nonenzymatic reactions in expanding the structural diversity of angucyclinones.
