Abstract
Griseusins F (1) and G (2), two 2a-hydro-8a-(2-oxopropyl)-substituted spiro-naphthoquinones with a previously undescribed C23 polyketide skeleton, were isolated from a Yunnan tin mine tailings-derived alkalophilic actinomycete, Nocardiopsis sp. YIM DT266. Their complete structure assignments with the absolute stereochemistry were elucidated by spectroscopic data, X-ray crystal diffraction, calculation of optical rotation, and CD spectroscopic analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited strong cytotoxicity (IC50 0.37-0.82 μM) and antibacterial activity (MIC 0.80-1.65 μg/mL) against Gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in vitro.
