Dothideomins A–D, Antibacterial Polycyclic Bisanthraquinones from the Endophytic Fungus <i>Dothideomycetes</i> sp. BMC-101

Four new bisanthraquinones, dothideomins A-D (1-4), were identified from Dothideomycetes sp. BMC-101, an endophytic fungus isolated from Magnolia grandiflora L. leaves. Their chemical structures were established by NMR analysis, single-crystal X-ray crystallography, and ECD analysis. Dothideomins A-D (1-4) were characterized by an unusual 6/6/6/5/6/3/6/6 octocyclic scaffold (1 and 2) and a 6/6/6/5/6/6/6 heptacyclic scaffold (3 and 4), respectively. All compounds, especially 1 and 3, exhibited potent antibacterial activity with MIC values ranging from 0.4 to 0.8 μg/mL.
