Arabilin is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C28H31NO6. It was first isolated from the MK756-CF1 strain of Streptomyces in 2010. [1] Chemically, it contains a substituted γ-pyrone ring and a p-nitrophenyl group that is rarely found in nature.

Arabilin acts as an androgen antagonist, [1] and therefore has attracted research interest in its potential pharmacological use. [2] [3] A laboratory synthesis of arabilin has been reported. [4] [5]

Related compounds also isolated from Streptomyces include spectinabilin and SNF4435C. [1]
