Abstract
High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Two new tetraene lactone derivatives ( 1 and 2 ), two new α-pyrone derivatives ( 3 and 4 ), three compounds reported as natural products for the first time [an α-pyrone derivative ( 5 ), an indole-diketopiperazine alkaloid ( 6 ), and a β-amino acid derivative ( 8 )], and 11 known compounds ( 7, 9 – 18 ), were obtained from microorganisms isolated from hadal trench sediments in the Pacific Ocean. Their structures were determined using NMR, HRESIMS, optical rotatory dispersion (ORD) spectra, NMR calculations followed by DP4+ analysis, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations, X-ray crystallography analysis, and advanced Marfey’s and modified Mosher eater methods. Microbial broth dilution assay suggested that compounds 6 – 11 and 15 had weak antibacterial effects.
