Abstract

A new bergamotane sesquiterpenoid, fumigatanol (1), along with nine known compounds (2-10) were isolated from the Aconitum-derived fungus Aspergillus fumigatus M1. Their structures were established on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses, ECD experiment and NMR computational method. Antibacterial and cytotoxic activities of compound 1 were evaluated and no obvious antibacterial and cytotoxic activities were observed at concentrations of 256 μg/mL and 40.00 μM, respectively.

Keywords: Aspergillus fumigatus M1; Fumigatanol; bergamotane sesquiterpenoid.
