T. Furumoto et al., NEOVASIPYRONES AND NEOVASIFURANONES - 4 NEW METABOLITES RELATED TO NEOVASININ, A PHYTOTOXIN OF THE FUNGUS, NEOCOSMOSPORA-VASINFECTA, Phytochemistry, 40(3), 1995, pp. 745-751
Four new metabolites, neovasipyrones A and B and neovasifuranones A an
d B, were isolated from the phytopathogenic fungus Neocosmospora vasin
fecta NHL2298, and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic m
ethods. The absolute stereochemistry of the neovasipyrones was establi
shed by X-ray analysis and chemical reactions.
