Abstract

Citrinovirin (1), a novel norditerpene with an unprecedented carbon skeleton along with three known compounds, cyclonerodiol (2), 3-(2-hydroxypropyl)-4-(hexa-2E,4E-dien-6-yl)furan-2(5H)-one (3), and 5-hydroxy-3-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-7-methoxychromone (4), was isolated from the culture of a marine brown alga-endophytic strain (cf-27) of Trichoderma citrinoviride. The structure and relative configuration of 1 were identified by spectroscopic methods, including 1D/2D NMR and MS. Its absolute configuration was established by analysis of ECD spectrum, aided by quantum chemical calculations. A plausible biogenetic pathway is proposed for 1, and it was evaluated to be active against Staphylococcus aureus.
