Three yellow pigments were isolated from a mycelial extract of the entomopathogenic fungus Paecilomyces militaris. With the aid of spectroscopic means, one compound was identified as a new pyridone alkaloid, militarinone D (1). The two other metabolites were characterized as two novel 3-acyl tetramic acids, militarinones B (2) and C (3). In contrast to the structurally related pyridone militarinone A (4), compounds 1-3 showed only negliable neuritogenic activity in PC-12 cells, whereas militarinone D (1) exhibited cytotoxicity. On the basis of a co-occurrence of 3-acyl tetramic acids and biogenetically related pyridone alkaloids in P. militaris, a revised biosynthetic pathway for pyridone alkaloids is proposed.

[structure: see text] A new pyridone alkaloid, militarinone A (1), was isolated by bioassay-guided fractionation from the mycelium of the entomogenous fungus Paecilomyces militaris. Its structure was established by extensive spectroscopic analysis. The compound features an unprecedented side chain and a 1,4-substituted cyclohexyl moiety not previously encountered in microbial metabolites. Militarinone A had a pronounced neurotrophic effect in PC-12 cells at 10 microM concentrations.

The culture medium of Beauveria amorpha Hohn. exhibited strong radical scavenging properties. Activity-directed fractionation assisted by a radical scavenging assay on TLC afforded two active compounds which were identified as 6-methyl-2,4-dihydroxyphenyl 4-O-methyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1) and (-)-terredionol (2). Compound 1 displays radical scavenging and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity comparable to those of TroloxC, ascorbic acid or quercetin.

The carbons at δ101.2, δ79.4, δ76.5, δ76.2, δ74.0, δ60.6 and δ60.0, and coupling relationships between the hydrogens connected to the carbons (Fig. 2) according well with a 4′-methoxyl-glucose moiety which existed commonly in metabolites of entomopathogenic fungus (Hu et al. 2002(Hu et al. , 2009). The chemical shifts and coupling relationships between aromatic carbons and hydrogens (Fig. 2) showed that the aglycone is a derivative of 1H-naphtho[2,3-c] pyran-1-ones which is consistent with the report (Ayer et al. 1991). ...

... including palbociclib [40], duvelisib [41], trametinib [42], ripretinib [43], and topotecan [44], contain the 2-pyridone moiety [45]. Among them, 4-hydroxypyridin-2(1H)-ones are particularly valuable in medicinal chemistry, drug discovery, and material science [46,47], found in various natural and synthetic compounds [48] with diverse biological activities [49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56]. Notable examples of 3-acyl-4-hydroxypyridin-2(1H)-one derivatives, such as Fischerin, Apiosporamide, Aspyridone, and Ilicicolin, exhibit neuroprotective, anticancer, cytotoxic, antifungal, and antibiotic properties, respectively [57][58][59][60]. ...
