Disclosed are macrocyclic compounds of formulae I, I, II, II, III, III, IV, and V, which are analogs of the pochonin resorcylic acid lactones, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, and methods and uses comprising the compounds for the treatment of diseases mediated by kinases and Heat Shock Protein 90 HSP90.

The present invention concerns groups of compounds derived from tunicates of the Synoicum species, as well as to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds, and uses thereof. Extracts from tunicates show selective toxicity against several different cancer cell lines in the NCI 60 cell line panel. These compounds are useful in the effective treatment of cancers, particularly malignant melanomas, colon cancer, and renal cancer cell lines.

A process of obtaining a purified geometric isomer of an unsaturated macrocyclic compound is disclosed herein. The process is effected by contacting an ion exchange medium comprising silver ions with a mixture comprising at least one geometric isomer of the unsaturated macrocyclic compound, to thereby obtain at least one fraction comprising the purified geometric isomer of the macrocyclic compound. A system configured for performing the process is also disclosed.
