Abstract

The concomitant addition of a histone deacetylase inhibitor, suberoyl bis-hydroxamic acid, and a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor, RG-108, to the culture medium of Gibellula formosana, an entomopathogenic fungus, induced a significant increase in diversity of secondary metabolites. From the culture media were isolated two new highly oxidized ergosterols, formosterols A (1) and B (2), and five new isariotin analogs, 120 -O-acetylisariotin A (4), 1-epi-isariotin A (5), and isariotins KeM (6e8), together with 22,23-epoxy-3,12,14,16-tetrahydroxyergosta-5,7-dien-11-one (named formosterol C) (3), isariotins A (9), C (10), and E (11), TK-57-164A (12), and beauvericin (13). The NMR spectra, X-ray single crystallographic diffraction, and chemical transformations revealed the structures of the two new formosterols and five new isariotins. The stereochemistry of formosterol C (3) was deduced from its spectroscopic data. The side chains of formosterols AeC (1e3) contained cis-22,23-epoxide, which is rarely present in naturally occurring sterols and triterpenes.
