A novel gamma-methylidene-spirobutanolide spirolephtoshol (1) was isolated from ascomycetous fungus Leptosphaeria doliolum as a cytotoxic compound. The relative structure was established by the NMR analysis involving the NOE experiments. Absolute structure of the bicyclic moiety was determined by chemical derivation followed by the CD analysis. The relative and absolute stereochemistry of the side chain was established by comparison of the (1)H NMR spectra and the chiral GC chromatograms of the degradation product with the synthetic samples.

Chemical analyses of grown on banana medium resulted in eight novel spiroleptosphols, T1, T2 and U-Z (-). The structures were elucidated by a combination of high-resolution mass spectrometric data and 1- and 2-D NMR experiments. The relative stereochemistry was assigned by H coupling and NOESY/ROESY experiments.

Unlabelled: The anamorphic genus Phoma was subdivided into nine sections based on morphological characters, and included teleomorphs in Didymella, Leptosphaeria, Pleospora and Mycosphaerella, suggesting the polyphyly of the genus. Recent molecular, phylogenetic studies led to the conclusion that Phoma should be restricted to Didymellaceae. The present study focuses on the taxonomy of excluded Phoma species, currently classified in Phoma sections Plenodomus, Heterospora and Pilosa.

Spiroleptosphol B (2), spiroleptosphol C (3), norleptosphol C (4) and hydroleptosphol (5) were isolated from ascomycete Leptosphaeria doliolum. Detailed (1)H and (13)C NMR spectral analyses revealed these were structural analogues of spiroleptosphol (1) which we have recently isolated from the same fungi. Spiroleptosphol B (2) carried an unprecedent 5,3-dioxatricyclo[4.

One hundred and forty microfungi (Ascomycetes and Deuteromycetes) were collected in the "Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord" located in North Rhine-Westphalia. New hosts for rarely found fungi are recorded for the first time. New for Germany are Massaria inquinans (Tode) De Not.
