Chemical analyses of extract constituents led to the isolation and identification of two new compounds, emestrin-G (1) and a new diastereomer of the cephalosporolide series, cephalosporolide-J (2), along with seven other previously known compounds, emestrin (3), emestrin-B (4) cephalosporolide F (5), decarestrictine-C2 (6), erithritol diacetate (7), ergosta-5-7-22-triene-3-ol (8) and ergosta-5-22-diene-3-ol (9). Structural elucidation of all compounds was carried out by NMR and MS analysis. Compounds 1, 3 and 4 were identified as the compounds responsible for the observed antimicrobial activity. |
