New phenylpyridone derivatives from the Penicillium sumatrense GZWMJZ-313, a fungal endophyte of Garcinia multiflora

Abstract

Citridones E–G (1–3), three new phenylpyridone derivatives together with two known curvularins (4 and 5) were isolated from the solid culture of the endophytic fungus Penicillium sumatrense GZWMJZ-313 in Garcinia multiflora. The structures of new compounds were determined in the light of spectroscopic data, X-ray and ECD calculation. Compounds 1 and 3 are racemates, while compound 2 is optically pure. Compounds 1 and 4 showed antibacterial and antifungal activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Clostridium perfringens, Escherichia coli and Candida albicans with MIC values ranging from 8 μg/mL to 64 μg/mL.
