Terretonin M (1), a new highly oxygenated tetracyclic meroterpenoid, was isolated from the thermophilic fungus Aspergillus terreus TM8 together with 10 known metabolites: terrelumamide A, asterrelenin, 7-prenyl-indolyl-3-carbaldehyde, (3β,5α,6β)-3,5,6-trihydroxy-ergosta-7,22-diene, sitostenone, linoleic acid, ergosterol, uracil, p-hydroxy-benzoic acid, and indole-3-carboxylic acid. The chemical structure of the new compound was elucidated by extensive 1D, 2D NMR, and ESI HR mass measurements, and by comparison with literature data. The absolute configuration of 1 was resolved by analysis of its NOESY spectrum and comparison of its experimental ECD spectrum with DFT calculations. In parallel to this work, revision of the absolute configuration of penisimplicins 3a and 3b is proposed on the basis of their ECD and ORD data. The isolation and taxonomic characterisation of A. terreus TM8 is reported, and the antimicrobial activity of the crude extract and the isolated compounds was studied as well.

Terretonin O: a new meroterpenoid from .

Nat Prod Res

April 2020

Organic and Bioorganic Chemistry, Faculty of Chemistry, Bielefeld University, Bielefeld, Germany.

Terretonin O (), a new meroterpenoid, was isolated individually from both methanolic extracts of thermophilic TM8 and marine LGO13. The recently reported terretonins M () and N ( were further isolated from the fungus LGO13 along with nine known compounds, terrelumamide A (), terrein (), methyl-3,4,5-trimethoxyl-2-[2-(nicotinamide)benzamido] benzoate (), butyrolactones I-III (-), aspulvinone O (), ergosterol, ergost-4-ene-3-one and methyl linoleate. Structure of terretonin O () was established on the bases of HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR spectra and comparison with its analogues in literatures.

A re-cultivation of the thermophilic fungus Aspergillus terreus TM8, and working up of its extract afforded the dichloro-benzophenone derivative, dihydrogeodin (1) in addition to the butyrolactones I (2), V (3) and VI (4). A literature surveying revealed one recent structural assignment trial for dihydrogeodin (1), however, with some inaccuracies. We report herein a full assignment of dihydrogeodin (1) using extensive study of 1D, 2D NMR and ESI HR mass data.
