Abstract
Hawaiinolides A-D (1-4), four new secondary metabolites including three cleistanthane (1, 3, and 4) and one cassane (2) type of diterpene lactones, were isolated from the crude extract of Paraconiothyrium hawaiiense, a fungus entomogenous to the Septobasidium-infected insect Diaspidiotus sp. The structures of 1-4 were elucidated by nuclear magnetic resonance experiments, and 1 and 3 were further confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The absolute configuration of 1 was assigned via single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis using Cu Kα radiation, whereas that of 2-4 was deduced via the circular dichroism data. Compound 1 showed significant cytotoxicity against a small panel of five human tumor cell lines, A549, T24, HeLa, HCT116, and MCF-7.
