    A chemical investigation on broth and mycelia extracts of the endophytic fungus Curvularia lunata BCC76963 led to the isolation of five new eremophilane sesquiterpenoids, curvuleremophilanes A−D (1–4) and septeremophilane I (5), one new conjugated unsaturated fatty acid, (6S,2E,4E)-8-hydroxy-4,6-dimethylocta-2,4-dienoic acid (6), and one new phenylacetic acid derivative, 4′-chlorocurvulin (8), along with ten known compounds. The chemical structures were elucidated based on the analyses of HRESIMS and NMR spectroscopic data. The absolute configurations of eremophilanes were assigned by the evidence from NOESY correlations, chemical conversion, optical rotation values, and ECD spectroscopic data in conjunction with biogenetic considerations. In addition, the absolute stereochemistry of compound 5 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Curvuleremophilane A (1), dendryphiellin I (10), chaetopenoid B (11), and bipolaroxin (12) displayed antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum K1 with IC<inf>50</inf> values in a range of 3.64–7.77 μM and antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus with MIC values in a range of 3.13–12.50 and 1.56–25.00 μg/mL, respectively. These compounds, except for compound 11, also showed cytotoxicity against NCI-H187 and Vero cells with respective IC<inf>50</inf> values in a range of 2.76–3.97 and 2.34–4.67 μM.

    Eleven previously undescribed compounds, including cytosporanthraxanthone, xanthoquinodins A7–A10, ketoxanthoquinodin A6, xanthoquinodins B6–B8, and spiroxanthoquinodins A and B, and one synthetically known compound, 2-methoxy pinselin, as well as ten known compounds, including xanthoquinodins A4−A6, B4, and B5, chrysophanol, physcion, (4S)-5-hydroxy-4-methoxy-α-tetralone, (4S)-4,8-dihydroxy-α-tetralone (or isosclerone), and gonytolide C were isolated from the fungus Cytospora eugeniae BCC42696. Their chemical structures were determined based on the analysis of NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric data. Moreover, the absolute configurations of the unknown compounds were established by using NOESY and NOEDIFF NMR experiments along with CD spectroscopic data. The isolated xanthoquinodins exhibited a broad range of antimalarial, antibacterial, and fungicidal activities as well as cytotoxicity. Xanthoquinodins A6, B4, and B5 showed strong activity to Plasmodium falciparum, K1 strain (IC<inf>50</inf> 0.52–0.92 μM) and displayed anti-Bacillus cereus (MIC 1.56 μg/mL). Xanthoquinodin A6 also showed anti-Curvularia lunata (MIC 3.13 μg/mL). In addition, xanthoquinodins A4, A6, B4, and B5 and ketoxanthoquinodin A6 showed cytotoxicity against both cancerous (MCF-7, KB, NCI-H187) and non-cancerous (Vero) cells.

(−)-Luteoskyrin exhibited a broad range of antimicrobial activity such as antimalarial (IC<inf>50</inf> 0.51 μg/mL), antitubercular (MIC 6.25 μg/mL), antibacterial (both Gram positive; MIC 0.39–1.56 μg/mL and Gram negative; MIC 3.13–12.50 μg/mL), and antifungal (against various plant pathogens; MIC 3.13–50.00 μg/mL)activities, while (−)-4a-oxyluteoskyrin and catenarin showed weaker antibacterial activity. Moreover, eutypinic acid, (−)-luteoskyrin, (−)-4a-oxyluteoskyrin, and catenarin showed cytotoxicity against NCI-H187 cells with IC<inf>50</inf> in a range of 0.16–17.99 μg/mL, while eutypinic acid and catenarin had no cytotoxicity against non-cancerous (Vero)cells at maximum tested concentration (50 μg/mL). The complete NMR spectral data and biological activity of the known (−)-4a-oxyluteoskyrin was also reported for the first time.

BCC56836. Their chemical structures were established based on the information from NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analyses, specific rotation values, and chemical means. A plausible biosynthesis of xerucitrinic acids A (14) and B (15), the first citrinin dimers with spiro skeletons, was also proposed. In addition, the isolated compounds were evaluated for antimicrobial activity, including antimalarial, antifungal, and antibacterial activities, and their cytotoxicity against both cancerous (MCF-7, KB, NCI-H187) and non-cancerous (Vero) cells. Compounds 2, 4, and 5 possessed antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum, K1 strain (IC<inf>50</inf> 1.19-13.70 μM) and compounds 3-5, 12-14, and 17 exhibited anti-Bacillus cereus activity (MIC 12.5-25.0 μg mL<sup>-1</sup>). Most isolated compounds showed low cytotoxicity against both cancerous and non-cancerous cells.

    Four new diphenyl ethers, aspergillusethers G−J (1–4), and one new depsidone, emeguisin D (7), together with eighteen known compounds have been isolated and characterized from the endophytic fungus Aspergillus unguis BCC54176. The chemical structures were established based on spectroscopic evidence in conjunction with a chemical transformation. Furthermore, the chemical structure of compound 7 was verified by single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The isolated compounds were evaluated for biological activity. Compound 7, emeguisin C (10), and nidulin (14) showed antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus with an equal MIC value of 1.56 μg/mL, while emeguisin A (8), nornidulin (13), 2-chlorounguinol (16), and aspergillusidone C (21) displayed anti-phytopathogenic activity against Colletotrichum acutatum with the equal MIC value of 3.13 μg/mL. Compound 7 was also active against Staphylococcus aureus with an MIC value of 1.56 μg/mL. However, none of the tested compounds had cytotoxicity against cancerous (MCF-7 and NCI–H187) and non-cancerous (Vero) cells.

A plausible biosynthesis of allahabadolactones A (1) and B (2) was also proposed. Antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus and cytotoxicity against MCF-7, KB, NCI-H187, and Vero cells of the isolated compounds were also evaluated.
