Abstract

Shimalactone A (1), a novel polyketide having bicyclo[4.2.0]octadiene and oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane units, was isolated from a cultured marine fungus of Emericella variecolor GF10. The stereo structure of 1 was deduced from 2D NMR and X-ray crystallographic analyses of 1 and its derivatives. The absolute structure of 1 was determined by application of the CD allylic benzoate rule to the benzoate derivative of 1. Shimalactone A (1) induced neuritogenesis at 10 μg/mL against neuroblastoma Neuro 2A cells.
