Their structures were elucidated by detailed interpretation of NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric data. The absolute configurations were confirmed by NOESY experiments as well as by DP4+ and ECD calculations. Differed from common cytochalasins, compound 1 is an uncommon secocytochalasin featuring the ester group cleaved between C-9 and C-23, and incorporating an additional oxygenated C4 unit which coupled with C-20 and C-22 to form a new substituted cyclohexenone moiety, while compound 2 contains an unusual 2–hydroxy-3-oxobutan-2-yl unit at C-22. Both compounds are distinctive from the commonly described cytochalasins. Compound 1 exhibited potent activity against angiotensinI-converting enzyme(ACE) whereas compound 2 showed antibacterial activity. Molecular docking simulations were performed to explore the intermolecular interaction of compounds 1 and 2 with ACE.展开更多
