    Abstract and di-substituted tricycloalternarenes form a group of meroterpenes isolated from epiphytic fungi. In this work, we have made thirteen proposals to correct erroneous structures of disubstituted tricycloalternarenes, also known as guignardones. Thus, in this group of compounds, structures of guignardones K, L₃, M, W, tricycloalternarene B₂, 15-hydroxy-tricycloalternarene 5 b, guignardiaene D, magnardones F–H and coibanols A-C, have been revised. Moreover, we have also explained why there are only two types of disubstituted tricycloalternarenes in nature, one with a –CH₂-O- β-bridge between C-6 and C-4 (6R,4S-configuration), and the other with a –CH₂-O- α-bridge between C-4 and C-6 (4R,6S-configuration). Finally, the relative and absolute configurations of phyllostictone A and the absolute structure of phyllostictone D have been established by comparison with those of magnardones I and D, respectively.

  4. Article: Biotransformation of the diterpene 15β-hydroxy-18(4→3)-abeo-ent-kaur-4(19),16-diene by the fungus Fusarium fujikuroi

    Abstract: 15β-Hydroxy-18(4→3)-abeo-ent-kaur-4(19),16-diene (4) was biotransformed by the fungus Fusarium fujikuroi into 3α,11β,15β-trihydroxy-18(4→3)-abeo-ent-kaur-4(19),16-diene (5). The hydroxylation at C-3(α) in this diterpene reminds a similar reaction that ... ...

    Abstract 15β-Hydroxy-18(4→3)-abeo-ent-kaur-4(19),16-diene (4) was biotransformed by the fungus Fusarium fujikuroi into 3α,11β,15β-trihydroxy-18(4→3)-abeo-ent-kaur-4(19),16-diene (5). The hydroxylation at C-3(α) in this diterpene reminds a similar reaction that occurs at C-13 in the biosynthesis of gibberellic acid in this fungus. The presence of the 15β-alcohol in the substrate directs the second hydroxylation at C-11(β), which had been observed in the incubation of ent-kaur-16-ene derivatives with this fungus when the C-19 hydroxylation was inhibited by the existence in the molecule of a 3α-OH or 3-oxo group. We also show that the angelate of the substrate is an undescribed natural product now identified as a component of the plant Distichoselinum tenuifolium.

    Abstract Cycloalternarenes are a group of meroterpenes isolated from epiphytic fungi with a mono-, bi, tri- or tetracyclic skeleton. We have detected in the bibliography a series of monosubstituted tricycloalternarenes with erroneous structures. Thus, in this work we make several proposals to correct the structures of nineteen 4-hydroxy-tricycloalternarenes, TCA 6a, TCA 11a₂, (2E)- and (2Z)-TCA 12a, 2H-(2E)-TCA 12a, TCAs 9a and F₂, methyl nor-tricycloalternarate, TCAs K, L, S–W, X₂ and tricycloalterfurenes A-C, and four 6-hydroxy-tricycloalternarenes, TCA 12b, TCA 13b, tricycloalterfurene D and TCA F₃. Moreover, the graphic representation of TCA 14b and TCAs 15b–18b had been corrected. In addition, we have suggested that mono-hydroxylated tricycloalternarenes can only exist in nature substituted at the 4α- or 6β-position (4R- or 6R-configuration), which could also be explained considering biogenetic reasons. We have also determined the C-4 and C-6 configuration of several monosubstituted tricycloalternarenes, whose planar structure had been previously determined. Thus, compounds of the “series a” such as TCAs 1a-8a, 11a and ACTG-toxin H have a 4R-configuration, whilst in the “series b” TCAs 3b–7b and TCAs 9b–11b possess a 6R-configuration.

    Abstract In an earlier work we reported that treatment of precocene I with Brönsted and Lewis acids produces its oligomerization, giving dimers, trimers, tetramers, etc. Now, in this article we show that bromination of precocene I with phenyltrimethylammonium tribromide (PTT) blocks its oligomerization giving a dibromo- dimer, which was reduced with tri-n-butyl tin hydride affording the same dimer obtained in the reactions with acid, thus avoiding the oligomerization. Additionally, the oxidations of precocene I with Jones reagent afforded the corresponding 3-hydroxy-4-chromanone, 3,4-chromandione, 3,4-diacid, and two dimers.

    Abstract In this work, we have studied the benzofurans of Pericallis echinata (aerial parts and transformed roots), P. steetzii (aerial parts and transformed roots), P. lanata (aerial parts), and P. murrayi (aerial parts and roots). This work has permitted the isolation of the new benzofurans 10-ethoxy-11-hydroxy-10,11-dihydroeuparin ( 10 ), (-)-eupachinin A ethyl ether ( 12 ), 11,15-didehydro-eupachinin A ( 13 ), 10,12-dihydroxy-11-angelyloxy-10,11-dihydroeuparin ( 14 ), 2,4-dihydroxy-5-formyl-acetophenone ( 15 ) isolated for the first time as a natural product, 11-angelyloxy-10,11-dihydroeuparin ( 16 ), and 12-angelyloxyeuparone ( 17 ), along with several known ones ( 1 – 9, 11 ). In addition, the incubation of the abundant component, 6-hydroxytremetone ( 1 ), with the fungus Mucor plumbeus has been studied. Benzofurans in the tremetone series ( 1 , 1a , 2 – 5 , 18 , 18a ), the euparin series ( 6 , 7 , 7a , 8 – 10 , 14 , 16 ), and the eupachinin-type ( 11 , 12 ) were tested for antifeedant effects against the insect Spodoptera littoralis . The antifeedant compounds ( 1 , 4 , 6 , 11 , 12 ) were further tested for postingestive effects on S. littoralis larvae. The most antifeedant compounds were among the tremetone series, with 3-ethoxy-hydroxy-tremetone ( 4 ) being the strongest antifeedant. Glucosylation of 1 by its biotransformation with Mucor plumbeus gave inactive products. Among the euparin series, the dihydroxyangelate 14 was the most active, followed by euparin ( 6 ). The eupachinin-type compounds ( 11 , 12 ) were both antifeedants. Compounds 4, 11, and 12 showed antifeedant effects without postingestive toxicity to orally dosed S. littoralis larvae. Euparin ( 6) had postingestive toxicity that was enhanced by the synergist piperonyl butoxide.
