    Investigation of the secondary metabolites of Streptomyces virginiae CMB-CA091 isolated from the quartz-rich (tepui) soil of a cave in Venezuela yielded two new dimeric phenazine glycosides, tepuazines A and B (1 and 2); three new monomeric phenazine glycosides, tepuazines C–E (3–5); and a series of known analogues, baraphenazine G (6), phenazinolin D (7), izumiphenazine C (8), 4-methylaminobenzoyl-l-rhamnopyranoside (9), and 2-acetamidophenol (10). Structures were assigned to 1–10 on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analysis and biosynthetic considerations, with 1 and 2 featuring a rare 2-oxabicyclo3.3.1­nonane-like ring C/D bridge shared with only a handful of known Streptomyces natural products. We propose a plausible convergent biosynthetic relationship linking all known members of this structure class that provides a rationale for the observed ring C/D configuration.
