چکیده

The marine-derived fungus Coniothyrium cereale was isolated from the green alga Enteromorpha sp. and found to produce the new phenalenone derivatives 1-7 as well as the known compounds lactone 8, (-) sclerodin (9), lamellicolic anhydride (10), (-) scleroderolide (11), and (-) sclerodione (12). The structures of these closely related compounds were established from extensive spectroscopic investigations on the basis of one and two dimensional NMR spectroscopic studies ((1)H, (13)C, COSY, NOESY, HSQC and HMBC) as well as mass spectrometric analysis (LC/MS, HREIMS and HRESIMS), UV and IR spectra. Compounds 5 and 11 showed the same antimicrobial activity toward Staphylococcus aureus SG 511 with an MIC value of 24 μM. The presence of a diketo-lactone ring as in compounds 5 and 11 was found to be essential for this activity. In agar diffusion assays with Mycobacterium phlei considerable inhibition zones were observed for compounds 2, 4 and 7. Compounds 1, 5 and 9 showed potent inhibition of human leukocyte elastase (HLE) with IC(50) values of 7.2, 13.3 and 10.9 μM, respectively.

Unusual Nitrogenous Phenalenone Derivatives from the Marine-Derived Fungus Coniothyrium cereale.

The new phenalenone metabolites 1, 2, 4, and 6 were isolated from the marine-derived endophytic fungus Coniothyrium cereale, in addition to the ergostane-type sterol (3) and entatrovenetinone (5). Compounds 1 and 2 represent two unusual nitrogen-containing compounds, which are composed of a sterol portion condensed via two bonds to phenalenone derivatives. Compound 6, which contains unprecedent...

Phenalenones: insight into the biosynthesis of polyketides from the marine alga-derived fungus Coniothyrium cereale.

The marine alga-derived fungus Coniothyrium cereale is a prolific producer of phenalenones. These polyketides were shown to possess antimicrobial effects and inhibitory activity towards the protease human leucocyte elastase (HLE). The current study focused on the biosynthesis of eight different structural types of phenalenones, comprising the natural products rousselianone A' (1), coniosclerodi...
