Abstract

Phomalevones A-C (1-3), three new com-pounds with bis-dihydroxanthone and bis-benzophenone systems, were isolated from cultures of a Hawaiian isolate of Phoma sp. (MYC-1734 = NRRL 39060; Cucurbitariaceae). The structures of 1-3 were determined by analysis of NMR and MS data. The absolute configurations of the sp(3) stereocenters in the monomeric unit of 1 were assigned by application of Mosher's method, and overall absolute configurations were proposed on the basis of ECD data using both computational methods and comparisons with literature data for model compounds. All three compounds showed antibacterial activity, and compounds 2 and 3 also exhibited antifungal effects.
