Abstract
The fungus Penicillium egyptacum has been reported as a producer of the 16-membered macrolide antibiotic A26771B. In this study, two new berkeleylactone analogues, berkeleylactones S–T (1–2), were isolated from P. egyptiacum. Their structures were determined by the analyses of 1D- and 2D-NMR data, HRESIMS, and chemical derivatization. 1 is the first example of berkeleylactone analogue possessing a glucose moiety, whose absolute configuration was elucidated by acid hydrolysis followed by derivatization and LC-MS analysis. No antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis and Streptococcus salivarius was found within the range of 0–100 μM for compounds 1–2.
