Two new phenanthrenes, (1R,2R)-1,7-hydroxy-2,8-methoxy-2,3-dihydrophenanthrene-4(1H)-one (1) and 2,7-dihydroxy-phenanthrene-1,4-dione (2), were isolated from the ethyl acetate-soluble fraction of Dendrobii Herba, together with seven known phenanthrenes (3–9), two bibenzyls (10–12), and a lignan (13). Structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by analyzing one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D)-NMR and High-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectra (HR-ESI-MS) data. The absolute configuration of compound 1 was confirmed by the circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopic method. In cytotoxicity assay using FaDu human hypopharynx squamous carcinoma cell line, compounds 3–6, 8, 10, and 12 showed activities, with IC50 values that ranged from 2.55 to 17.70 μM.

The new asperorlactone (1), along with the known illudalane sesquiterpene echinolactone D (2), two known pyrones, 4-(hydroxymethyl)-5-hydroxy-2H-pyran-2-one (3) and its acetate 4, and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (5), were isolated from a culture of Aspergillus oryzae, collected from Red Sea marine sediments. The structure of asperorlactone (1) was elucidated by HR-ESIMS, 1D, and 2D NMR, and a comparison between experimental and DFT calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. This is the first report of illudalane sesquiterpenoids from Aspergillus fungi and, more in general, from ascomycetes. Asperorlactone (1) exhibited antiproliferative activity against human lung, liver, and breast carcinoma cell lines, with IC50 values < 100 µM. All the isolated compounds were also evaluated for their toxicity using the zebrafish embryo model.

Two compounds (1) and (2) containing tert-butylphenol groups were, for the first time, produced during the culture of Paenibacillus odorifer, a bacterial strain associated with the crustose lichen, Rhizocarpon geographicum. Their entire structures were identified by one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) NMR and high-resolution electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (HRESIMS) spectroscopic analyses. Among them, Compound 1 exhibited significant cytotoxicity against B16 murine melanoma and HaCaT human keratinocyte cell lines with micromolar half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values. Furthermore, after supplementation studies, a putative biosynthesis pathway was proposed for Compound 1 throughout a bioconversion by this bacterial strain of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), an antioxidant polymer additive.
