Three novel alkaloids (1-3), named pyriferines A-C, were isolated from fruiting bodies of Pseudobaeospora pyrifera. They possess an unusual eight-membered N/O-acetal ring, derived from L-glutamic acid, that is connected to an enolized 1,3-diketo moiety. The structures were determined by spectroscopic methods, and the absolute configuration of the glutamic acid moiety was established using GC-MS after Mosher-type derivatization.
