Three new depsidones, botryorhodines E–G (1–3), and two new isoindolinones, meyeroguillines A and B (7 and 9), along with five known compounds were isolated from an endophytic fungus Meyerozyma guilliermondii, derived from the mangrove plant Kandelia obovata. Their structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and high resolution mass spectrometry (HREIMS). Compounds 1–6 exhibited strong α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 values ranging from 2.1 to 13.3 μM. Moreover, kinetic studies of compounds 2 and 6 showed that both of them were noncompetitive inhibitors of α-glucosidase.

The new sesquiterpenoid 8-deoxy-15-(3′-hydroxy-2′-methyl-propanoyl)-lactucin 3′-sulfate (1) was isolated from the methanolic extract of roots of Reichardia gaditana L. The compound was isolated by silica gel column chromatography (CC) and repeated Sephadex LH-20 CC. Structure elucidation was accomplished by high-resolution mass spectrometry and by 1D- and 2D-NMR spectroscopy. The chemosystematic significance of the new compound is discussed in the context of sesquiterpenoids from other members of the Lactuceae tribe of the Asteraceae family.

AbstractA new dimeric naphtho-γ-pyrone, 2-hydroxydihydronigerone (1), along with five compounds, nigerone (2), pyrophen (3), kojic acid (4), 4-(hydroxymethyl)-5-hydroxy-2H-pyran-2-one (5), and p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (6), was isolated from an endophytic fungus Aspergillus niger AKRN associated with the roots of Entandrophragma congoënse. The structure of the new compound has been elucidated using spectroscopic data including 1D and 2D NMR as well as the high-resolution mass spectrometry. Compounds 1–5 showed weak antimicrobial activity on five selected Gram-negative bacteria, namely Enterobacter aerogenes (CM64), Enterobacter cloacae (BM67), Klebsiella pneumonia (K2), and Escherichia coli (ATCC8739 and ATCC10536).

Sponge-derived fungi have recently attracted attention as an important source of interesting bioactive compounds. Aspergillus nomius NC06 was isolated from the marine sponge Neopetrosia chaliniformis. This fungus was cultured on rice medium and yielded four compounds including three new oxisterigmatocystins, namely, J, K, and L (1, 2, and 3), and one known compound, aspergillicin A (4). Structures of the compounds were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and by high-resolution mass spectrometry. The isolated compounds were tested for cytotoxic activity against HT 29 colon cancer cells, where compounds 1, 2, and 4 exhibited IC50 values of 1.21, 2.23, and 5.62 µg/mL, respectively. Under the fluorescence microscope by using a double staining method, HT 29 cells were observed to be viable, apoptotic, and necrotic after treatment with the cytotoxic compounds 1, 2, and 4. The result shows that compounds 1 and 2 were able to induce apoptosis and cell death in HT 29 cells.

LC-MS/MS-based molecular networking facilitated the targeted isolation of a new cyclic hexadepsipeptide, cymodepsipeptide (1), and two known analogues, RF–2691A (2) and RF–2691B (3), from the fungus Cymostachys sp. NBUF082 that was derived from a mesophotic zone Aaptos sponge collected near Apo Island. The constitution and configuration of 1 was elucidated through 1D and 2D NMR-spectroscopy, high resolution mass-spectrometry, and chemical degradations including Marfey’s analysis and chiral HPLC. It was observed that 1 was moderately cytotoxic against CCRF-CEM human acute lymphocytic leukemia cells in vitro with the IC50 value of 9.2 ± 1.1 μM.

Background: Triazoles are a class of aza-heterocycles with broad spectrum of biological importance. The synthetic tunability of the triazole moiety allows for the development of new pharmacophores with applications as drugs to contend with the burden of cancer. Objective: In this study, we aimed to develop a series of N-aryltriazole and N-acridinyltriazole molecular hybrids and evaluate their potential as anticancer agents. Methods: The triazole derivatives (1-10) were synthesized via a tandem nucleophilic substitution of aryl chlorides with sodium azide followed by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the resulting organic azides with terminal/internal alkynes. From terminal alkynes, the well established copper(I) catalyzed azide-alkynes 1,3- dipolar cycloaddition, a premier example of click chemistry, was employed to access the 1,4-regioisomers of N-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazoles and N-acridynyl-1H-1,2,3-triazoles. All the compounds thus synthesized were characterized by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and high resolution mass spectrometry. Results: Thermally controlled 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition was used to deliver N-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazoles with 1,4,5-substitution on the triazole framework. The unprecedented high regioselectivity promoted by the sterically-strained silylated 1,4,5-trisubstituted moiety 4a offers a useful synthetic precursor with the silyl group being a synthetic handle for further structural elaboration to the desired 1,(4),5-di(tri)substituted 1,2,3- triazoles. Notably, anticancer evaluation revealed good cytotoxic activities of the novel acridinyltriazole hybrids (6-10) at micromolar concentrations in the range of 12.5 µM–100 µM against cervical cancer HeLa, kidney cancer HEK293, lung cancer A549 and leukemic MT4 cancer cell lines (p < 0.05). Conclusion: A series of novel triazole-based acridine hybrids have been developed as potential leads for the development of multifaceted anticancer agents.

The new natural product 4′-hydroxy-deacetyl-18-deoxycytochalasin H (1), together with the known deacetyl-18-deoxycytochalasin H (2) and 18-deoxycytochalasin H (3) were obtained from the endophytic fungus Trichoderma harzianum isolated from leaves of Cola nitida. The structure of the new compound was unambiguously determined by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, and by HRESIMS measurements, as well as by comparison with the literature. Compounds 1-3 showed potent cytotoxic activity against the murine lymphoma (L5178Y) cell line and against human ovarian cancer (A2780 sens and A2780 CisR) cell lines (IC50 0.19–6.97 μM). The A2780 cell lines included cisplatin-sensitive (sens) and -resistant (R) cells.
