Abstract
:

Two new compounds, lasdiplactone (1) and lasdiploic acid (2) and one known compound 3 were isolated from the chloroform extract of cell free filtrate of the endophytic fungus Lasiosdiplodia pseudotheobromae. The structures of new compounds were determined by interplay of spectral techniques (IR, mass, H NMR, C NMR, DEPT, and 2D NMR). The absolute configuration at C-4 position of 1 was established as S using a process similar to modified Mosher's method. The absolute configuration of 2 was established by comparing its ECD spectrum with the calculated ECD spectra of all possible isomers. In the in vitro XO inhibition assay, the highest inhibition was exhibited by 3 with an IC of 0.38 ± 0.13 μg/ml, followed by 2 with an IC of 0.41 ± 0.1 μg/ml and the least in 1. The oxidized form of 1 also showed high XO inhibition with IC of 0.35 ± 0.13 μg/ml.
