New metabolites from the marine-derived bacterium Pseudomonas sp. ZZ820R

Six previously undescribed compounds, named monaxanthones A and B, monaphenol A, monathioamide A, monaprenylindole A, and monavalerolactone A, were isolated from the culture of a marine-sourced bacterium Pseudomonas sp. ZZ820R in rice medium. Their structures were elucidated based on the HRESIMS data, NMR and MS-MS spectroscopic analyses, optical rotation and ECD calculations. Monathioamide A is an unprecedented sulfur-contained compound and monavalerolactone A represents the first example of this type of natural products. Monaprenylindole A showed antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
