Abstract

Six new butyrolactone derivatives (1, 2a/2b, 3a/3b and 4), together with another two known derivatives (5 and 6) were isolated from the endophytic fungus Talaromyces sp. CPCC 400783. Their structures were established by a combination of spectroscopic analysis, including NMR and HRESIMS. The absolute configurations were elucidated by ECD experiments. Subsequently, compound 1, 3b, 4 and 5 exhibited good inhibitory effect against influenza A/WSN/33 (H1N1) virus with IC50 values of 21.93 ± 1.51, 21.54 ± 3.75, 18.36 ± 2.15 and 23.80 ± 3.05 μM respectively.
