Abstract

Mangrove endophytic fungi were proved to be a prolific resources for bioactive secondary metabolites. Two new polyketides, pestalotiopin B (1) and pestalotiopyrone N (2) were obtained from the ethyl acetate extracts of the rice solid cultures of the mangrove endophytic fungus Pestalotiopsis sp. HQD-6. The structures of 1 and 2 were determined by detailed interpretation of NMR spectroscopic analysis and HR-ESIMS. All of the isolates were evaluated for their antimicrobial, antioxidant and cytotoxic activities.

Keywords: Mangrove endophytic fungi; Pestalotiopsis sp.; polyketides; structure identification.
