Abstract

Two new isocoumarin derivatives, eleuthemarins A (1) and B (2), were isolated from the Arctic fungus Eleutheromyces sp. CPCC 401592. Their structures and absolute configurations were elucidated through spectroscopic methods, quantum chemical calculations of NMR shifts, and calculated electronic circular dichroism. This is the first report for the chemical investigation of the genus Eleutheromyces. Compounds 1 and 2 showed selective cytotoxic activities against H460, A549, and HCT116 cancer cell lines with IC50 values in the range of 24.1-57.3 μM, respectively. Compound 1 displayed weak antibacterial activities.
