Abstract

Chemical investigation of the culture broth of the fungus Eutypella scoparia ICB-OBX, isolated from the marine pulmonate mollusc Onchidium sp., led to the finding of novel compounds 1 and 2, structurally related to angiotensin II binding inhibitors cytosporins, along with unrelated known nitrogen metabolites (compounds 3–5). The structure and the relative stereochemistry of the novel metabolites were assigned mainly by a detailed analysis of two-dimensional NMR techniques whereas the absolute stereochemistry was proposed by modified Mosher's method. Compound 2 contains an unusual cyclic carbonate functionality that is rare among natural products.
