Abstract

A new tetrahydroimidazopyridine named butyl (5R,6R,7S,8S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-6,7,8-trihydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylate(1), together with eight known compounds (2–9), were isolated from the fermentation broth of a marine-derived fungus Paraconiothyrium sp. YK-03. Their chemical structures were elucidated by extensive analysis of one-dimensional and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy, HR-ESIMS and optical rotation. Among these compounds, compound 1 represented a rare tetrahydroimidazopyridine, and compounds 2–7 were isolated from the Paraconiothyrium species for the first time. A plausible biosynthetic pathway for compound 1 was proposed.
