Secondary Metabolites of the Endophytic Fungus Chaetomium globosum Isolated From Coptis chinensis

Abstract

A new steroid, chaetglotone (1), together with 3 known compounds (2-4), were isolated from Chaetomium globosum, which is an endophytic fungus isolated from the root of Coptis chinensis Franch . The new compound was characterized by one-dimensional and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometer. The relative configuration and absolute configuration of 1 were further determined via the DP4\u2009+ and Early Childhood Development protocols, separately.
