Abstract Two new harziane diterpene lactones, possessing a 6/5/7/5-fused carbocyclic core containing a lactone ring system, harzianelactones A and B (1 and 2), and five new harziane diterpenes, harzianones A–D (3–6) and harziane (7), were isolated from the soft coral-derived fungus Trichoderma harzianum XS-20090075. Their structures were determined by extensive NMR spectroscopic data, ECD and OR calculations, as well as X-ray diffraction. The isolated compounds exhibited potent phytotoxicity against seedling growth of amaranth and lettuce. Harziane diterpenes were rarely reported for their remarkably bioactivities, and it was the first report to study the phytotoxicity of harziane diterpenes, which provide a new application of such compounds in agriculture for future research.

An unusual C18 norditerpenoid, aspergiloid I (1), was isolated from the culture broth of Aspergillus sp. YXf3, an endophytic fungus derived from Ginkgo biloba. Its structure was unambiguously established by analysis of HRMS–ESI and spectroscopic data, and the absolute configuration was determined by low-temperature (100 K) single crystal X-ray diffraction with Cu Kα radiation. This compound is structurally characterized by a new carbon skeleton with an unprecedented 6/5/6 tricyclic ring system bearing an α,β-unsaturated spirolactone moiety in ring B, and represents a new subclass of norditerpenoid, the skeleton of which is named aspergilane. The hypothetical biosynthetic pathway for 1 was also proposed. The cytotoxic, antimicrobial, anti-oxidant and enzyme inhibitory activities of 1 were evaluated.

In our continuous search for antibacterial agents against Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) from kiwi-associated fungi, two pairs of epimeric cytochalasins, zopfiellasins A–D (1–4), were characterized from the fungus Zopfiella sp. The structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic data analysis, while the absolute configurations were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1 and 3 exhibited antibacterial activity against Psa with MIC values of 25 and 50 μg/mL, respectively. This is the first report of anti-Psa activity of cytochalasin derivatives.

The reaction of (C6F5)2BCl with 8-lithio-N,N-dimethyl-1-naphthylamine (1) afforded the fivemembered ring system 8-bis(pentafluorophenyl)boryl-N,N-dimethyl-1-naphthylamine (2) with an intramolecular dative B-N bond. The compound was characterised by elemental analysis, NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Reactions of pentamethylantimony (CH3)5Sb with carboxylic acids in the molar ratio 1:2 afford one equivalent of methane and essentially quantitative yields of crystalline tetramothylstibonium hydrogendicarboxylates. Six new compounds of this series have been synthesized using benzoic, o-phthalic, salicylic, 4-ethoxy-salicylic, oxalic, and malic acid, and characterized by analytical and spectroscopic data. An ionic structure with strong hydrogen bonds in the anionic components is proposed.The crystal structures of the hydrogen-dibenzoato (1), hydrogen-ortho-plithalato (2) and 4-ethoxy-hydrogen-salicylate (3) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compounds can be described as having ionic lattices with some donor-acceptor inter­actions between the stibonium centers and the carboxylate oxygen atoms. The anions are characterized by strong hydrogen bonds O...H...O. Thus, the (CH3)4Sb-tetrahedron in 1 is distorted by two benzoate oxygon atoms (at 304(2) and 340(2) pin). The cation in 2 is largely undistorted and the anion has a hydrogenphthalate hydrogen bond of d(O...H...O) = 232 pm. The cation-anion contact in 3 is as short as d(Sb-O) = 289 pm rendering the Sb atom pentacoordinate.

Diazobenzofluorene-containing atypical angucyclines exhibit promising biological activities. Here we report the inactivation of an amidotransferase-encoding gene flsN3 in Micromonospora rosaria SCSIO N160, a producer of fluostatins. Bioinformatics analysis indicated that FlsN3 was involved in the diazo formation. Chemical investigation of the flsN3-inactivation mutant resulted in the isolation of a variety of angucycline aromatic polyketides, including four racemic aminobenzo[b]fluorenes stealthins D–G (9–12) harboring a stealthin C-like core skeleton with an acetone or butanone-like side chain. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic data and X-ray diffraction analysis. A plausible mechanism for the formation of stealthins D–G (9–12) was proposed. These results suggested a functional role of FlsN3 in the formation/modification of N–N bond-containing fluostatins.

Two new isocoumarin derivatives, 6,8-dihydroxy-7-methyl-1-oxo-1H-isochromene-3-carboxylic acid (1) and 6,8-dihydroxy-3-methoxy-3,7- dimethyl-isochroman-1-one (2), together with five known compounds (3-7), were isolated from the endophytic fungus Pestalotiopsis coffeae derived from the Chinese plant fishtail palm. The structures of these compounds were determined mainly by analysis of their NMR spectroscopic data. The structure of compound 2 was further confirmed by X-ray diffraction.

A new bis-Tröger's base was prepared from a tetraamine precursor as a mixture of two diastereoisomers. One of the isomers has a chair-like geometry, and the other possesses a boat-like geometry, embodying molecular tweezers. A one-pot preparation of bis-TB isomers and their interconversion under acid conditions was also studied. Structures of both isomers were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Extensive spectroscopic data, including 1H and 13C NMR, IR and Raman spectra of the isomers, are given.

The structure of a novel nor-cembranoid diterpene of formula C19H24O6 (1) is reported. The compound was extracted from the soft coral Sinularia leptoclados, and spectroscopic data were collected on the parent compound (1) and a series of derivatives. It was not possible to assign an unambiguous structure on purely spectroscopic grounds, and so single-crystal X-ray analysis was used to prove the structure (1): (4R*,8S*,11R*,13S*,14R*)-14-hydroxy-4-isopropenyl-11-methyl-6,9-dioxo-8,11-epoxycyclotetradec-1-ene-1,13-carbolactone.
