Abstract

Two pairs of new bisabolane-type sesquiterpenoids, (+)-aspersydowin A (7S) [(+)-1], (-)-aspersydowin A (7R) [(-)-1], (+)-aspersydowin B (7S,11S) [(+)-2], (-)-aspersydowin B (7R,11R) [(-)-2], along with six known compounds (1-8) were isolated from the fungus Aspergillus sydowii. Compounds 1 and 2 are enantiomers resolved by the Chiralpak IC, using a hexane- propan-2-ol mobile phase. The structure of 1 and 2 with absolute configuration were assigned tentatively by 1D (1 H, 13 C, and DEPT) & 2D (HSQC, 1 H-1 H COSY, HMBC, and NOESY) NMR data analyses and ECD calculations. Compounds 1-8 were screened for the biological activities in vitro. The results showed that compounds 3, 4 and 8 exhibited immunosuppressive activities with IC50 values of 10.9, 17.6 and 13.4 μM, respectively.
