Azaphilones from the Endophyte Chaetomium globosum

Six new azaphilones, 5`-epichaetoviridin A (7), 4`-epichaetoviridin F (9), 12 beta-hydroxychaetoviridin C (10), and chaetoviridins G-I (11-13), and six known azaphilones, chaetoviridins A E (1-5) and 4`-epichaetoviridin A (8), were isolated from the endophytic fungus Chaetomium globosum cultivated in PDB medium for 21 days. The structure elucidation and the assignment of the relative configurations of the new natural products were based on detailed NMR and MS spectroscopic analyses. The structure of compound 1 was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. were determined using Mosher`s method. The antibiotic activity of the elegans infection model. The absolute configurations of compounds 4, 7, 8, and 12 compounds was evaluated using an in vivo Caenorhabditis elegans infection model
