Abstract

Five new tetralones, daldiniones A-E (1-5), three new chromones, 7-hydroxy-5-methoxy-2,3-dimethylchromone (9), 5-methoxy-2-propylchromone (10), and 7-ethyl-8-hydroxy-6-methoxy-2,3-dimethylchromone (11), and two new lactones, helicascolides D and E (16 and 17), together with nine known metabolites (6-8, 12-15, and 18-19) were isolated from the mangrove-derived fungus Daldinia eschscholtzii HJ004. The structures and absolute configurations of the new compounds were determined by analyzing MS and NMR data and utilizing GIAO based 13C NMR chemical shift calculations and quantum chemical electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. Compounds 9, 13, and 18 showed inhibitory activities against α-glucosidase with IC50 values of 13, 15, and 16 μM, respectively.
