Seven sesquiterpenoids, named nebucanes A–G (1–7), featuring a rare alliacane scaffold
with
unprecedented furan or pyrrole functions, were isolated from the fermentation
broth of Clitocybe nebularis. Their structures were
established on the basis of 1D/2D NMR spectroscopic analyses, HR-(+)-ESIMS
spectra, and comparison of measured and calculated CD spectra for
determination of the absolute configuration. Assessing the biological
activities, nebucane D (4) exhibited antifungal effects
against Rhodotorula glutinis, while nebucane G (7) displayed significant cytotoxicity against MCF-7 and A431
cell lines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
