Antibacterial spirooxindole alkaloids from Penicillium brefeldianum inhibit dimorphism of pathogenic smut fungi.

ABSTRACT: Three new antibacterial spirooxindole alkaloids, spirobrefeldins A-C (1-3), together with four known analogs, spirotryprostatin M (4), spirotryprostatin G (5), 12β-hydroxyverruculogen TR-2 (6), and 12α-hydroxyverruculogen TR-2 (7), were isolated from terrestrial fungus Penicillium brefeldianum. All the new compounds were elucidated extensively by the interpretation of their NMR (1D and 2D) spectra and high-resolution mass data, and their absolute configurations were determined by computational chemistry and CD spectra. The absolute configurations of spiro carbon C-2 in spirotryprostatin G (5) and spirotryprostatin C in literature were reported as S, which were revised to R based on experimental and calculated CD spectra. All the compounds were evaluated for their antim
