ABSTRACT
Two new compounds, named rhizoaspergillin A (1) and rhizoaspergillinol A (2), were isolated from the mangrove endophytic fungus Aspergillus sp. A1E3, associated with the fruit of Rhizophora mucronata, together with averufanin (3). The planar structures and absolute configurations of rhizoaspergillinol A (2) and averufanin (3) were established by extensive NMR investigations and quantum-chemical electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. Most notably, the constitution and absolute configuration of rhizoaspergillin A (1) were unambiguously determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of its tri-pivaloyl derivative 4, conducted with Cu Kα radiation, whereas those of averufanin (3) were first clarified by quantum-chemical ECD calculations. Rhizoaspergillin A is the first orsellinic acid-ribose-pyridazinone-N-oxide hybrid containing a unique ß-oxo-2,3-dihydropyridazine 1-oxide moiety, whereas rhizoaspergillinol A (2) and averufanin (3) are sterigmatocystin and anthraquinone derivatives, respectively. From the perspective of biosynthesis, rhizoaspergillin A (1) could be originated from the combined assembly of three building blocks, viz., orsellinic acid, ß-D-ribofuranose, and L-glutamine. It is an unprecedented alkaloid-N-oxide involving biosynthetic pathways of polyketides, pentose, and amino acids. In addition, rhizoaspergillinol A (2) exhibited potent antiproliferative activity against four cancer cell lines. It could dose-dependently induce G2/M phase arrest in HepG2 cells.
