Abstract

Chemical examination of Chinese mangrove Ceriops tagal endophytic Cytospora sp., yielded a new biscyclic sesquiterpene seiricardine D (1), and eight known metabolites, xylariterpenoid A (2a), xylariterpenoid B (2b) and regiolone (3) 4-hydroxyphenethyl alcohol (4), (22E, 24R)5, 8-epidioxy-5α, 8α-ergosta-6,22E-dien-3ß-ol (5), (22E, 24R)5, 8-epidioxy-5α, 8α-ergosta-6,9(11), 22-trien-3 ß-ol (6), ß-sitosterol (7) and stigmast-4-en-3-one (8). These structures were unambiguously elucidated on the basis of extensive NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analyses. The antimicrobial activities of compounds 1–8 and their effects on a panel of plant and human pathogens were evaluated.
