ent-Eudesmane sesquiterpenoids, 8,11-dihydroxy-2,4-cycloeudesmane, 11-hydroxy-2,4-cycloeudesman-8-one and 2,4-cyclo-7(11)-eudesmen-8-one, were isolated from the wood of Platycarya strobilacea, which has been used as an aromatic tree since at least the 18th century. On charring the wood, 2,4-cyclo-7(11)-eudesmen-8-one was detected in the smoke. In the charred wood, the concentrations of ellagitannins, such as galloyl pedunculagin, dramatically decreased, whereas concentrations of pentagalloyl glucose, and other gallotannins were relatively stable. In addition, two other compounds, the 6'-O-m- and p-digalloyl oak lactone precursor and the 3-O-methylellagic acid 4'-O-(4″-O-galloyl)-xylopyranoside, were isolated from the charred wood along with m- and p-digallic acid.

State Key Laboratory of Mycology, Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, People's Republic of China.

Three new ent-eudesmane sesquiterpenoids, arundinols A-C (1-3), one isochroman-1-one, arundinone A (4), and a polyoxygenated benzofuran-3(2H)-one dimer, arundinone B (5), were isolated from the extract of a plant endophytic fungus, Microsphaeropsis arundinis. Their structures were elucidated primarily by NMR experiments, and 1 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The absolute configuration of 1 was assigned by X-ray crystallography using Cu Kα radiation, whereas those of the C-11 tertiary alcohols in 2 and 3 were deduced via the circular dichroism data of the in situ formed [Rh(2)(OCOCF(3))(4)] complexes.
