Three New Antibacterial Mycophenolic Acid Derivatives from the Marine-Derived Fungus Penicillium sp. HN-66.

Three new mycophenolic acid derivatives, penicacids L-N (1-3), together with four known analogues, were isolated from a fungus Penicillium sp. HN-66 derived from a South China Sea marine sediment. The structures of compounds 1-3 were determined on the basis of HR-ESI-MS, NMR (H, C, HSQC and HMBC) data analyses, and comparison of optical rotations.

Chemical Constituents of a Marine-derived Fungus Fusarium oxysporum F0888 and their Antibacterial Activity.

Five new compounds, including four hydroxyphenylacetic acid derivatives, stachylines H-K (1-4), a derivative of hydroxyphenylethanol (5), as well as seven known compounds were obtained from a marine-derived fungus Fusarium oxysporum F0888 isolated from sediments in the South China Sea. The structures and absolute configurations of new compounds were determined by spectroscopic (IR, NMR, and HR-ESI-MS) analyses, comparison of optical rotations, and the modified Mosher's MTPA ester method. Antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activities of compounds 1-12 were tested.

Three new andrastin derivatives from the endophytic fungus .

Three new andrastin derivatives, 10-formyl andrastone A (), 10-demethylated andrastone A () and andrastin G (), together with four known andrastin analogues (-) were isolated from an endophytic fungus . Their structures were determined by 1 D, 2 D NMR, and the absolute configurations were further determined by experimental and calculated ECD spectra. Compound exhibited significant antibacterial activity against B with an MIC value of 6.
