Extracts from an endophytic fungus isolated from the roots of the Algerian plant showed prominent antimicrobial activity in a screening for novel antibiotics. The producer organism was identified as by means of morphological studies and molecular phylogenetic methods. Studies on the secondary metabolite production of this strain in various culture media revealed that the major components from shake flasks were massarilactones D () and H () as well as two new furanone derivatives for which we propose the trivial names (5)--gregatin B () and graminin D ().

The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by the analysis of their spectroscopic data and chemical interconversions, and that of 3 was determined by comparison with data for synthetic cis-gregatin B.

A (DHQN)(2)AQN-promoted asymmetric dihydroxylation (92% ee) of the allyl chloride derived from enynol (E)-13 and an 8-step sequence provided access to the hydroxyethylated furanone (R)-21. Oxidation with MnO(2) furnished 50% furanone (+)-(R)-2a and 2.7% isomeric furanone (+)-(R)-3a.
