Academic Editor: Russell Kerr Received: 9 September 2016; Accepted: 8 November 2016; Published: 22 November 2016 Abstract: Four new chromone derivatives, phomopsichins A–D (1–4), along with a known compound, phomoxanthone A (5), were isolated from the fermentation products of mangrove endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp. 33#. Their structures were elucidated based on comprehensive spectroscopic analysis coupled with single-crystal X-ray diffraction or theoretical calculations of electronic circular dichroism (ECD). They feature a tricyclic framework, in which a dihydropyran ring is fused with the chromone ring. Compounds 1–5 showed weak inhibitory activities on acetylcholinesterase as well as α-glucosidase, weak radical scavenging effects on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) as well as OH, and weak antimicrobial activities. Compounds 1–4 showed no cytotoxic activity against MDA-MB-435 breast cancer cells. Their other bioactivities are worthy of further study, considering their unique molecular structures. Keywords: mangrove endophytic fungi; Phomopsis sp.; secondary metabolites; chromone derivatives 1. Introduction The chromone family of natural products exhibit a range of biological activities including anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, atypical antipsychotic, and anti-platelet properties [1–9]. In our continuous investigation of new bioactive secondary metabolites from the mangrove endophytic fungi in the South China Sea, four new chromone derivatives, phomopsichin A–D (1–4), along with a known compound, phomoxanthone A (5), were isolated from the metabolic products of endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp. 33# from the bark of the mangrove plant Rhizophora stylosa. Compounds 1–3 (Figure1) featured a tricyclic framework in which a dihydropyran ring is fused at C-3 and C-4 of the chromone ring. To our knowledge, the compounds with this type skeleton number approximately 10, which were reported to exhibit the activity attenuating resistin-induced adhesion of HCT-116 colorectal cancer cells to endothelial cells [10], the activity interrupting the dimer formation of Aβ17–42 peptide associated to Alzheimer’s disease [11], inhibitory activity against metallo-β-lactamases [12], moderate antibacterial activity and weak cytotoxic activity [13–15].
