Abstract

A new naphthopyrone derivative, lasionectrin (1), was isolated from fermentations of an Acremonium-like fungus provisionally identified as a Lasionectria sp. (Ascomycota, Hypocreales) and isolated from forest leaf litter from Equatorial Guinea. Its structure was determined by a combination of spectroscopic techniques, including UV, (+)-HRESIMS, and 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, and comparison with published data for related fungal metabolites. Compound 1 inhibited the growth of Plasmodium falciparum with an IC(50) value of 11 μM.
