A New Glycine Derivative and a New Indole Alkaloid from the Fermentation Broth of the Plant Endophytic Fungus Pestalotiopsis podocarpi Isolated from the Chinese Podocarpaceae Plant Podocarpus macrophyllus

Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>A new glycine derivative, podocarpiamide (<jats:bold>1</jats:bold>), a new indole alkaloid, 1‐methoxy‐1<jats:italic>H</jats:italic>‐indol‐3‐ethanol (<jats:bold>2</jats:bold>), together with two known compounds, 1‐methoxy‐1<jats:italic>H</jats:italic>‐indole‐3‐acetic acid (<jats:bold>3</jats:bold>) and methyl 1‐methoxy‐1<jats:italic>H</jats:italic>‐indole‐3‐acetate (<jats:bold>4</jats:bold>), were isolated from the fermentation broth of the plant endophytic fungus <jats:italic>Pestalotiopsis podocarpi.</jats:italic> Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis including 1D‐ and 2D‐NMR (HSQC, HMBC, and COSY) and MS experiments. Compound <jats:bold>1</jats:bold> has an interesting unusual carbamic acid structure.
