Two cyathane-type diterpenoids from the liquid culture of Strobilurus tenacellus

Chem Biodivers. 2008 Sep;5(9):1811-6. doi: 10.1002/cbdv.200890170.

Abstract

The structures of two new cyathane-type diterpenoids isolated from a liquid culture of Strobilurus tenacellus have been elucidated. The chemical structures of the new compounds 1 and 2 were identified as (12S)-11alpha,14alpha-epoxy-13alpha,14beta,15-trihydroxycyath-3-ene and (12R)-11alpha,14alpha-epoxy-13alpha,14beta,15-trihydroxycyath-3-ene, respectively, by spectral methods, including HR-EI-MS, and 1D- and 2D-NMR techniques. Compounds 1 and 2 show antimicrobial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In addition, both compounds were also tested for activity against human cancer cells, and 2 showed growth inhibitory activity against YMB and COLO 201 cells.
