摘要
A novel 10-membered macrolactone, hypoxylide (1), was isolated from the endophytic fungus Annulohypoxylon sp. that was obtained from the Mangrove plant Rhizophora racemosa. The structure and absolute configuration of 1 were unambiguously elucidated by comprehensive 1D and 2D NMR, as well as by HRESIMS and ECD spectroscopic analyses. Hypoxylide (1) features an unprecedented polyketide skeleton comprised of a trihydroxynaphthalene-dione moiety fused to a decalactone ring. A plausible biosynthetic pathway of this novel metabolite is proposed.
