  • New $\alpha$-pyrones (1 and 2) and cyclohexenones (13 and 14) were isolated along with known analogues (3, 5−12) from the ethyl acetate extract of the whole broth of the fungus Paecilomyces lilacinus, a strain derived from a marine sponge Petrosia sp. Their structures were established by interpretation of 1D and 2D NMR, and FABMS data. It is interesting to isolate cyclohexenone derivatives from the genus Paecilomyces (family Trichocomaceae, order Eurotiales), since these cyclohexenones were previously reported only from far distinct genera, Phoma and Alternaria (family Pleosporaceae, order Pleosporales). Compounds 6, 7, and 9 were evaluated for cytotoxicity against a small panel of human solid tumor cell lines. Their cytotoxicity was insignificant upto a concentration of 30 ${\mu}g/mL$.

  • Bioactivity guided fractionation of the cultured filtrates of Aspergillus versicolor, which was derived from a marine sponge Petrosia sp., yielded three polyketides: decumbenones A (1),B (2), and versiol (3). These compounds were identified on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic and MS analysis. The absolute configuration was defined by the modified Mosher's method. The isolated compounds were tested for cytotoxicity against a panel of five human solid tumor cell lines and antibacterial activity against twenty clinically isolated methicillin-resistant strains. This is the first report on the isolation of these compounds from a marine source.

  • A chemical investigation of the marine-derived fungi Aspergillus versicolor led to the isolation of a new aromatic polyketide (1), The structure was elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, and its radical-scavenging activity, reducing power, and inhibitory activity to lipid oxidation were investigated. Those activities of compound 1 were compared with standard antioxidants such as butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), tertiarybutylhydroquinone (TBHQ), and ascorbic acid ($V_C$). Compound 1 showed antioxidant activity comparable to that of BHA, and siginificantly higher than that of BHT.

  • Chemical investigation of a marine-derived fungus, Penicillium sp. 108YD020, resulted in the discovery of six bile acid derivatives, glycocholic acid (1), glycocholic acid methyl ester (2), cholic acid (3), glycochenodeoxycholic acid (4), glycodeoxycholic acid methyl ester (5), and cholic acid methyl ester (6). The structures of six bile acid derivatives 1-6 were determined by the detailed analysis of 1D, 2D NMR and LC-MS data, along with chemical methods and literature data analysis.
