Phenopyrrolizins A and B, Two Novel Pyrrolizine Alkaloids from Marine-Derived Actinomycetes Micromonospora sp. HU138.

Two previously undescribed pyrrolizine alkaloids, named phenopyrrolizins A and B (1 and 2), were obtained from the fermentation broth of marine-derived Micromonospora sp. HU138. Their structures were established by extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D and 2D NMR spectra as well as HRESIMS data. The structure of 1 was confirmed by single-crystal diffraction analysis and its racemization mechanism was proposed. The antifungal activity assay showed that 2 could inhibit the mycelial growth of Botrytis cinerea with the inhibitory rates of 18.9% and 35.9% at 20 µg/disc and 40 µg/disc, respectively.
