摘要

From the culture filtrates of Diaporthella cryptica, an emerging hazelnut pathogen, 2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoate methyl ester and its 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl) and 3-(1H-indol-3-yl) analogues, named crypticins A-C, were isolated together with the well-known tyrosol. Crypticins A-C were identified by spectroscopic (essentially nudear magnetic resonance and high resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry) methods. The R absolute configuration (AC) of crypticin A was determined by comparing its optical rotation and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectrum with those of papuline, the methyl ester of (-)(S)-phenyllactic acid isolated as the main phytotoxin of Pseudomonas syringae pv. papulans, responsible for apple blister spot. The ACs of crypticins B and C were determined by time -dependent density functional theory calculations of their ECD spectra. Papuline and the new metabolites herein isolated, except tyrosol, were tested at 1 mg/mL on cork oak, grapevine, hazelnut, and holm oak leaves using the leaf puncture assay. They were also tested on tomato cuttings at 0.5 and 0.05 mg/mL. In the leaf puncture assay, none of the compounds was found to be active. Crypticin C and papuline were active in the tomato cutting assay. Additionally, crypticin C displayed moderate inhibitory effect against Phytophthora cambivora.
