Abstract

The active metabolites investigation of Talaromyces sp. (strain No. MH551540) associated with Xanthoparmelia angustiphylla afforded one new δ-lactone, talaromycin A (1), together with six known compounds, clearanol A (2), 6-methylbiphenyl-3,3',4,5'-tetraol (3), desmethylaltenusin (4), ergone (5), ergosterol (6), and palmitic acid (7). The structures of these compounds were elucidated by a combination of spectroscopic-data interpretation and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The cytotoxicities of 1-7 and the antioxidant activities of 3 and 4 were also evaluated.

Keywords: Talaromyces; antioxidant activity; biological activity; cytotoxicity; endolichenic fungus; metabolites; talaromycin A.
