Abstract

Two undescribed citrinin derivatives, named peniciriols A-B (1–2), together with six known compounds were isolated from endophytic fungus Penicillum citrinum TJNZ-27. The structures of two new compounds were well established by the detail interpretation of NMR and HRESIMS data as well as ECD measurement powered by molecular calculation. Among them, compound 1 shared an unprecedented dimerized citrinin skeleton with the formation of an intriguing 9H-xanthene ring system, whereas compound 2 possess a highly substituted phenylacetic acid skeleton, which was rarely-occurring in natural secondary metabolites. Moreover, these novel compounds were tested for cytotoxic and antibacterial activities, whereas these novel compounds did not exhibit any noticeable cytotoxic or antibacterial activities.
