Abstract

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.
