Six new pimarane derivatives, including two di-nor-pimaranes (1, 2), two 17-nor-pimaranes (3, 4), and two 17-nor-(9β-H)-pimaranes (5, 6), were isolated from the tuber of Icacina trichantha. Their structures were elucidated based on spectroscopic and HRMS data. The absolute configurations of 1 and 5 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and that of 2 was established by electronic circular dichroism data analysis. Compound 3 possesses a unique C-20 acetal moiety. This is the first report of the isolation of di-nor-(9β-H)-pimarane derivatives from Icacina plants. Compounds 5 and 6 showed moderate cytotoxicity against MDA-MB-435, MDA-MB-231, and OVCAR3 cell lines, with IC50 values of 2.91-7.60 and 1.48-3.23 μM, respectively.

A novel macrolactam named oxalactam A (), three known dipeptides (-) as well as other known alkaloids (-) were obtained from the endophytic fungus , which was derived from the tuber of (Icacinaceae). All chemical structures were established based on spectroscopic data, chemical methods, ECD calculations, and C-DP4+ analysis. Among them, oxalactam A () is a 16-membered polyenic macrolactam bearing a new skeleton of 2,9-dimethyl-azacyclohexadecane core and exhibited potent anti- activity with a MIC value of 10 μg/mL in vitro.

Background: Occurrences in land use, human activities and climate change have both direct and indirect influences on the environment. Of interest for this study is mining; a common activity in developing countries such as Nigeria which is endowed with over 34 solid minerals. The gold mining sites in the Southwest region of the country is predominantly by Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM).
