Abstract:

In order to investigate new bioactive compounds, a piece of fungi Aspergillus aculeatus was obtained from the Jinyun mountain soil in Chongqing, China. By fermentation using Potato Dextrose(PD) within 14 d at 28 ℃, the extraction of ethyl acetate(103 g) was obtained. The extraction was then used for isolation of compounds through a series of study by classical separation methods, for example Octadecyl Silane(ODS) and Sephadex LH-20. Two new compounds 2-(2',4',6'-trihydroxy phenyl)benzene-(7-hydroxy-5-methyl) chromone(1) and (E)-4-hydroxy-3-[(4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)oxy] benzoic acid(2) were obtained. The structures were elucidated using mass spectrometry(MS), one demensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1D NMR), heteronuclear multiple bond correlation(HMQC), heteronuclear single quanturn correlation(HMBC) and rotating-frame overhauser effect spectroscopy(ROESY). Other two known compounds 2-(2'-hydroxypropyl)-5-methyl-7-hydroxychromone(3) and (3R, 4S)-8-hydroxy-3,4,5- trime-thyl-6-oxo-4,6-dihydro-3H-isochromene-7-carboxylic acid(4) were obtained. Compounds 2 to 4 exhibited some 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) antioxidant activity.
