Abstract:
Two undescribed eudesmane-type sesquiterpenoids together with four known compounds were isolated from Clonostachys sp. Y6-1 associated. Their chemical structures were unambiguously determined by NMR, mass spectrometry, and 13 C-NMR calculation as well as DP4+ probability analyses. The absolute configurations of compounds 1 and 2 were determined by ECD calculation and X-ray single-crystal diffraction methods. Furthermore, all isolates were evaluated for in vitro cytotoxic activities against MCF-7, HCT-116, MDA-MB-231, and SW620 cancer cells. Among them, bioactivity evaluation of compound 5 revealed that weak activity (IC50 =66.55±0.82 μM) against SW620.
