Abstract

Two novel epimer pairs of acetaminophen derivatives penicilquei A-D (1-4) were isolated from Penicillium herquei JX4. Their structures were elucidated using comprehensive spectroscopic methods. The absolute configurations of penicilquei A-D (1-4) were determined by modifified Mosher's method, and comparing their experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Penicilquei A-D (1-4) are the first example of acetaminophen derivatives featuring an unprecedented carbon skeleton. The inhibitory activities of all compounds against nine phytopathogenic fungi and α-glucosidase were evaluated. Penicilquei A-D (1-4) showed strong inhibitory activities against at least eight phytopathogenic fungus.
