Abstract

Twelve new fungal polyketides, koningiopisins I-P (1-8) and trichoketides C-F (9-12), together with six known congeners (13-18), were isolated from Trichoderma koningiopsis, a rhizosphere fungus obtained from the medicinal plant Polygonum paleaceum. Their structures and absolute configurations were established by spectroscopic analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, the modified Mosher's method, chemical derivatization, the octant rule, and 13C NMR and ECD calculations. Compounds 1-5 are tricyclic polyketides possessing an octahydrochromene framework with a 6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane core. Compounds 7 and 8 contain a unique ketone carbonyl group at C-7 and differ from other members of this group of compounds with the ketone carbonyl group at C-1. Compounds 1, 2, and 13 showed inhibitory activity on LPS-induced BV-2 cells on NO production with IC50 values of 14 ± 1, 3.0 ± 0.5, and 8.9 ± 2.7 μM, respectively.
