Abstract:
Three new polyketides, a griseofulvin derivative 1, a hydroanthraquinone derivative 8 and a pyranolactone derivative 10, together with eight known compounds (2-7, 9 and 11), were isolated from the marine-derived fungus Nigrospora sp. MG36-1. The structures of the three new compounds were unambiguously determined by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry, 13C NMR calculation in combination with DP4+ and ECD calculations. The antitumor, antibacterial and antifungal activities of the compounds 1-9 were evaluated in vitro. Compound 1 showed antibacterial activity against Acinetobacter baumannii with MIC 42.5 μg/mL. Compounds 1 and 8 exhibited antifungal activity against Candida albicans with MICs 21.5 μg/mL and 17.5 μg/mL, respectively.
