The Eurotiales is a relatively large order of Ascomycetes with members frequently having positive and negative impact on human activities. Species within this order gain attention from various research fields such as food, indoor and medical mycology and biotechnology. In this article we give an overview of families and genera present in the Eurotiales and introduce an updated subgeneric, sectional and series classification for Aspergillus and Penicillium . Finally, a comprehensive list of accepted species in the Eurotiales is given. The classification of the Eurotiales at family and genus level is traditionally based on phenotypic characters, and this classification has since been challenged using sequence-based approaches. Here, we re-evaluated the relationships between families and genera of the Eurotiales using a nine-gene sequence dataset. Based on this analysis, the new family Penicillaginaceae is introduced and four known families are accepted: Aspergillaceae , Elaphomycetaceae , Thermoascaceae and Trichocomaceae . The Eurotiales includes 28 genera: 15 genera are accommodated in the Aspergillaceae ( Aspergillago , Aspergillus , Evansstolkia , Hamigera , Leiothecium , Monascus , Penicilliopsis , Penicillium , Phialomyces , Pseudohamigera , Pseudopenicillium , Sclerocleista , Warcupiella , Xerochrysium and Xeromyces ), eight in the Trichocomaceae ( Acidotalaromyces , Ascospirella , Dendrosphaera , Rasamsonia , Sagenomella , Talaromyces , Thermomyces , Trichocoma ), two in the Thermoascaceae ( Paecilomyces , Thermoascus ) and one in the Penicillaginaceae ( Penicillago ). The classification of the Elaphomycetaceae was not part of this study, but according to literature two genera are present in this family ( Elaphomyces and Pseudotulostoma ). The use of an infrageneric classification system has a long tradition in Aspergillus and Penicillium . Most recent taxonomic studies focused on the sectional l...

The syntheses of the fungal metabolites cytosporones A, (±)-C, and N are reported. And the syntheses of cytosporones J and K are described for the first time. The preparation of racemic cytosporone J and racemic cytosporone K, natural products containing the rare 3-isochromanone substructure, was achieved in 8 linear steps with an overall yield of 45 % and 7 linear steps in 46 % yield, respectively, resulting in the complete characterization of these compounds for the first time. The key steps included a recently described homologation of benzoic acid to the analogous phenyl acetate using Birch reductive alkylation conditions, acylation of the appropriate phenyl acetate derivative, and a selective reduction and spontaneous biomimetic lactonization to yield the 3-isochromanone skeleton. The synthesized natural products were evaluated for their biological activity against several clinical strains of human pathogens with all compounds displaying weak antimicrobial activity
