Metabolites from the endophytic fungus Xylaria sp PSU-D14

Glucoside derivatives, xylarosides A (1) and B (2), were isolated from the broth extract of the endophytic fungus Xylaria sp. PSU-D14 along with two known compounds, sordaricin (3) and 2,3-dihydro-5-hydroxy-2-methyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (4). The structures were assigned by spectroscopic methods. Sordaricin (3), one of the known metabolites, exhibited moderate antifungal activity against Candida albicans ATCC90028 with a MIC value of 32 mu g/ml. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
