Abstract

Two novel naphthalene-containing compounds, colelomycerones A and B (1 and 2, resp.), and three known metabolites, including preussomerin D (3), (2RS,2'SR,3'E,3SR,4E,8E)-1-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-hydroxy-2-[(2-hydroxyoctadec-3-enoyl)amino]-9-methyloctadeca-4,8-diene (4), and 3beta-hydroxy-5alpha,8alpha-epidioxyergosta-6,22-diene (5), were isolated from the culture broth of an unidentified freshwater water fungus YMF 1.01029. This fungus was collected from a decaying branch of an unidentified tree near Lake Fuxian in Yunnan Province, China. The structures of these five compounds were determined on the basis of their spectroscopic and mass-spectrometric data. Colelomycerones A and B (1 and 2, resp.) represent unprecendented examples of naphthalene-1,2-diones with novel cyclic acetals. Compounds 1-3 showed noticeable antifungal and antibacterial activities.
