1H and 13C NMR assignments of two new diaryl ethers phomopsides A and B from the mangrove endophytic fungus (ZZF08).

Two new diaryl ethers, named phomopside A (1) and B (2), together with known excelsione (3) were isolated from the mangrove endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp. (ZZF08) obtained from the South China Sea coast. The structure of 1 was elucidated by NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Compounds 2 and 3 were identified by NMR spectroscopy and comparing the spectroscopic data with literature values. In addition, the plausible biogenetic path of 1, 2 and 3 is discussed.
