Keywords: Phomopsis, secondary metabolite, cytochalasin.Phomopsis sp. is a widely distributed endophytic fungus, some of which can cause serious plant diseases such as leaf blight, twig dieback, fruit rot, and seed decay [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Cytochalasins were isolated from the genus Phomopsis as the main phytotoxic metabolites, which can inhibit the growth of the plants [9][10][11][12]. In this study, we investigated the secondary metabolites of the plant pathogenic fungus P. sp. cib-109 by chromatographic and spectroscopic methods. As a result, a new compound named cytochalasin R1 (1), along with epoxycytochalasin J, cytochalasin H, cytochalasin J, cytochalasin N, and cytochalasin O [9-13], were isolated and identified from the solid-state fermented rice culture of the fungus P. sp. cib-109. Here we report on the structural elucidation of compound 1.The molecular formula of compound 1 was inferred to be C 30 H 41 NO 6 from the quasi-molecular ion at m/z 534.2815 [M + Na] + in the HR-ESI-MS spectrum and the signals in the 13 C NMR spectrum. The IR spectrum absorption bands at 1680 and 1742 cm -1 and the NMR signals (G C 176.3, G C 170.5, and G H 9.12) suggested the presence of amide and acetyl groups.In the 1 H NMR spectrum, there were signals characteristic of a monosubstituted phenyl at G 7.37 (4H, overlap, H-2c, 3c, 5c, 6c) and 7.28 (1H, t, J = 7.0 Hz, H-4c) and five methyls at G 1.14 (3H, d, J = 6.9 Hz, H-22), 1.18 (3H, d, J = 7.2
A series of polyketide metabolites (1-6), including a new chlorinated diphenyl ether (4-chloro-7,4'-dihydroxy-5,2'-dimethoxy-2-methylformate-6'-methybenzophone, 1), were isolated from the solid-fermented rice culture of Penicillium griseofulvum cib-119. The structure of compound 1 was determined on the basis of NMR spectra and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. In addition, compound 1 showed weak cytotoxic activity against prostatic carcinoma cell (PC-3). Compounds 3-5 exhibited significant antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
