Abstract

Sparticols A (1) and B (2), two catechol-bearing naphthalenedioxy derivatives, were isolated from the submerged culture of the Spanish broom inhabiting Dothideomycetes fungus, Sparticola junci. The structures of 1 and 2 were established by NMR spectroscopic analysis and high-resolution mass spectrometry. The 8S absolute configuration of their β-hydroxy functionalities was determined by ECD-TDDFT. Both compounds exhibited inhibitory activity against Staphylococcus aureus with an MIC value of 66.6 μg/mL. Polyketides 1 and/or 2 may be associated with pathways cascading to seco-spirodioxynapthalene derivatives.
