Stereumamides E-H, four new minor quaternary ammonium hybrids from Stereum hirsutum.

ABSTRACT

In our preview research, four novel quaternary ammonium hybrids were isolated from the Stereum hirsutum FP-91666. To further discover this type of compounds, S. hirsutum was fermented in 30 L YMG broth, and eight hybrid compounds including four new quaternary ammoniums were obtained, which are sesquiterpenes combined with α-amino acids. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses, including 1D- and 2D-NMR, and HR-MS experiments.
