INTRODUCTION Resorcylic acid lactones (RALs) are a big member of mycotoxins with a resircinol moiety fused to the α, β-position of a macrocyclic lactone ring. According to the ring size, this member of secondary metabolites are further divided into 8-membered, 10-membered, 12-membered, and 14-membered ring subgroups, though the 10-membered ring analogs rarely occurred in nature.1−3 This group of secondary metabolites exhibited versatile biological effects, including antitumor, antibacterial, and antimalarial activities, and recently the 14-membered ring RALs with a cis-enone group in the macrocyclic ring have been reported to display irreversible but selective inhibition against different protein kinases due to the hetero-Michael reaction with a conserved cysteine in the ATP binding pocket.3−5 In 1999, Pearl and co-workers obtained the cocrystal structure of the RAL radicicol with Hsp90, implying that the carbonyl group in the macrocycle and 9/11-OH on the aromatic ring were the potentially biological functionalities, mimicking the adenosines’s binding interactions with different amino acids groups in Hsp90 by hydrogen-bonds.6 Investigation of RALs biogenetic pathway revealed that this class of mycotoxins were originated from two polyketide synthases (PKSs) including one highly reducing one and another nonreducing one, which formed the corresponding macrocyclic lactone ring and resorcylate core, respectively.1,2,7,8 Our lab recently initiated chemical investigation of plant endophytic fungi isolated from desert and grassland plants inhabiting in Northwest of China, including Ning-xia, Qing-hai, Shaan-xi, Xin-jiang, Inner Mongolia Provinces, and a series of secondary metabolites © 2018 American Chemical Society

with diverse structural features and a wide range of biological effects were purified.9−13 During our ongoing to obtain bioactive natural products from this member of special fungi, five new RAL analogs hispidulactones A−E (1, 4, 5, 8, and 9), a new natural product (2)14 and four known analogs (3, 6, 7, and 10)15−18 with different ring systems were purified from the plant endophytic fungus Chaetosphaeronema hispidulur (Number: TS-8-1) collected from the desert plant Bassia dasyphylla in Teng−Ge−Li desert, Ning-xia Province of West China (Figure 1). The structural elucidation, biological evaluation, and possible biosynthetic pathway of these compounds were presented in this report.



MATERIALS AND METHODS

General Experimental Procedures. UV data were taken by UV-2102 (Unico, Shanghai, China). CD spectra were recorded by JASCO J-815 spectropolarimeter. Optical rotations were recorded on a 241 polarimeter (PerkinElmer, Waltham, America). The FTIR8400S spectrophotometer (Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan) was used to measure the IR spectra. One-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) NMR spectra (1H, 500 MHz; 13C, 125 MHz) were measured on a Bruker 500 spectrometer. Semipreparative HPLC separation was performed on a Shimadzu LC-6AD instrument packed with a YMC-Pack ODS-A column. HRESIMS spectra were obtained using a TOF-ESI-MS (Waters Synapt G2, America).

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The molecular formula of 1 was characterized to be C15H20O4 (six unsaturation degrees) by its HRESIMS (m/z 287.1255 [M + Na]+, Calcd 287.1259). The NMR data revealed two methyl (one methoxyl), five methylenes, one oxygenated methine unit, six aromatic carbons, and one ester carboxyl group in the structure 1 (Table 1). This information accounted for all the NMR signals, requiring 1 to possess two rings. Considering the chemical shift values of H-8/H-10 and their coupling relationship, together with the intramolecular hydrogen bond between 11-OH and C-12 implied a benzenediol ring presented in the structure 1, which was further supported by HMBC correlation (Figure 2). The 1H−1H COSY spectrum revealed an isolated proton spin-system as the corresponding fragment of − C-1−C-2−C-3−C-4−C-5−C-6−C-7−. HMBC correlations from H-2 to an ester carboxyl group (C-12), from −CH2−7 to C-7a, C-8, and C-11a together with from −OMe to C-9 confirmed the planar structure of 1 to be a benzenediol lactone analog. Fortunately, the single-crystal of 1 was 8977

cultivated suitably for X-ray analysis, which determined the stereochemistry of C-2 as R-configuration. The structure of 2 was determined to be the demethyl product of 1 at C-9, which was ever synthesized by Yang et al.14 Compound 3 were determined to be a known natural product recently isolated from a mangrove plant endophytic fungus, and the stereochemistry of 3 was assigned to be 2R, 4R by X-ray diffraction method.15 The molecular formula of hispidulactone B (4) was assigned to be C14H18O5 on the basis of its HRESIMS (m/z 267.1232 [M + H]+, Calcd 267.1232). This compound (4) had near the same 1H NMR spectrum as that 3, which implied that 4 might be the stereoisomer of at C-4, whereas the 2D NMR spectra including HSQC, COSY and HMBC revealed that the hydroxyl group at C-4 in 3 was actually put at C-3 in 4 (Figure 3). This confirmed that 4 was a new 10-membered RAL. The relative configuration of C-3 and C-4 was characterized based on coupling constant and ROESY spectrum. The large coupling constant of H-2/H-3 (J = 6.5 Hz)23 together with the ROESY correlations from 1-Me to H-3 confirmed the trans-configuration of H-2 with H-3 (Figure 3). The molecular formula of 5 was established to be C15H20O5 (six unsaturation degrees) based on its HRESIMS (m/z 281.1388 [M + H]+, Calcd 281.1389). The NMR data of 5 were near same as those 3 and 4, except that one more methoxyl unit was observed in 5, implying that one of the 4, 9, 11-OH in 3 was replaced by a methoxyl in 5. The HMBC correlation confirmed that the additional −OMe was anchored at C-9, which established the planar structure of 5 (Figure 3). The ROESY correlations between 1-Me and H-4 in 5 revealed the same face of these protons on the macrocyclic ring system (Figure 3). The limited amount of 5 precluded its further reaction with Mosher’s reagents. On account of the same biosynthetic pathway, and nearly same CD spectra of these compounds 3−5 (Figure 4), the stereochemistry of C-2 in 4 and 5 was suggested to be same as that of 3, of which the absolute configuration was established by X-ray diffraction result. The high-resolution ESI-MS of 8 determined its molecular formula as C17H20O5 (five unsaturation degrees). The 1H and

C NMR data together with HSQC spectrum revealed 4 methyl (three methoxyl), 2 methylenes, 10 olefilic carbons (2 of which was protonated), and 1 ester carboxyl group in structure 8 (Table 1). An isolated proton spin-systems as the corresponding fragment of − C-1−C-2−C-3−C-4−C-5− was given by the COSY spectrum. The Key HMBC cross peaks from three methoxyls to C-8, C-9, and C-11, from H-7 to C-6, C-7a, C-8, and C-11a, and from H-10 to C-8, C-9, C-10, C-11, and C-11a, especially to C-12 established a 1H-isochromene unit.7,8 HMBC correlations between −CH2-5 and C-6, C-7 connected the aliphatic chain − C-1−C-2−C-3−C-4−C-5− with the 1H-isochromene unit, and the olefinic bond (C-2 and C-3) was suggested as Z-configuration on the ROESY correlation from 1-CH3 to H-3 and 4-CH2 to H-2, which established the structure of 8 (Figure 5).

Figure 5. Key 2D NMR correlations of compounds 8 and 9.

The high-resolution ESI-MS (m/z 315.0846 [M + Na]+, Calcd 315.0845) assigned the molecular formula of 9 to be C15H16O6 (five degrees of unsaturation). The structure 9 also possessed a 1H-isochromene unit except that C-8 had an olefinic proton and C-11 had a free hydroxyl group compared with that of 8, which was supported by HMBC spectrum (Figure 5). The 1H−1H COSY correlations gave an isolated proton spin-systems as the corresponding fragment of −C-3− C-4−C-5−. The HMBC correlations from −CH3-1 to C-2 and C-3, and from −CH2−5 to C-6 and C-7 determined the structure of 9. Considering a free hydroxyl group anchored at C-4 in 9, modified Mosher’s reaction was tried to further

Though compounds 1−5, 6/7, and 8/9 possess different macrocyclic ring system (10-membered, 12-membered, and pyran2-one), those secondary metabolites might be originated from the

same biosynthetic pathway. The possible biosynthetic pathway of 1−9 was suggested (Figure 6).

CONCLUSION Ten polyketides 1−10 including nine resorcylic acid lactones with different structural features were purified from the desert plant endophytic fungus C. hispidulur, and the structures of new compounds were characterized by using NMR, CD spectra, and X-ray diffraction. More than 180 benzenediol lactones with different postmodification were isolated from diverse fungal origins, but 10-membered RALs very rarely occurred in nature and only three analogs were found up-todate. The results in this paper implied that plant endophytic fungi living special environments such as desert areas might conserve unique genetic information with the potentials to produce a diverse of new natural products with unique skeletons displaying a wide range of biological effects.
