RESUMO
Comprehensive analyses of the metabolite spectra of Aspergillus sp. EGF 15-0-3 under different culture conditions revealed the presence of unique environmental-induced metabolites exclusively from the rice medium. Subsequent target isolation afforded four unprecedented indole diketopiperazine-based hybrids with a pyrano[3',2':7,8]isochromeno[4,3-b]pyrazino[2,1-i]indole core (1 and 2) or a spiro[piperazine-2,2'-pyrano[3,4,5-de]chromene] scaffold (3 and 4). Putative biosynthetic pathways for 1-4, with Diels-Alder cycloadditions as key steps, were proposed. 1-4 exhibited selective cytotoxicities among several human cancer cells.
