The Cytochalasins and Polyketides from a Mangrove Endophytic Fungus Xylaria arbuscula QYF.

ABSTRACT: Twelve compounds, including four undescribed cytochalasins, xylariachalasins A-D (1-4), four undescribed polyketides (5-8), and four known cytochalasins (9-12), were isolated from the mangrove endophytic fungus Xylaria arbuscula QYF. Their structures and absolute configurations were established by extensive spectroscopic analyses (1D and 2D NMR, HRESIMS), electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations, ¹³C NMR calculation and DP4+ analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and the modified Mosher ester method. Compounds 1 and 2 are rare cytochalasin hydroperoxides. In bioactivity assays, Compound 2 exhibited moderate antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans w
