Abstract

A new cytotoxic roridin-type trichothecene macrolide named epiroridin acid (1) and two known compounds epiroridin E (2) and mytoxin B (3) were isolated from the liquid culture of Myrothecium roridum A553, which was isolated from the medicinal plant Pogostemon cablin. The structure of the new macrolide (1) was elucidated by extensive spectroscopic measurements (UV, IR, MS, and 1D and 2D NMR) analyses. All isolated compounds (1–3) were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against SF-268, MCF-7, NCI-H460, and HepG-2 tumor cell lines. The new compound (1) exhibited well cytotoxicity against the four selected tumor cell lines.
