1,6-Dimethoxyphenazine is a simple phenazine produced by several species of Streptomyces. Dimethoxyphenazine is a weakly active antibacterial metabolite with activity against mycobacteria. Dimethoxyphenazine and related phenazines are important dereplication standards in discovery research to eliminate leads due to high amounts of weakly potent actives.

ChEBI: 1,6-dimethoxyphenazine is a member of the class of phenazines that is phenazine substituted by methoxy groups at positions 1 and 6. It is a bacterial metabolite found in Streptomyces thioluteus. It has a role as a bacterial metabolite. It is a member of phenazines, an aromatic ether and a diether. It is functionally related to a 1,6-dihydroxyphenazine.
