Isolation of the tetrapeptide apicidins G, H and I from the fungus Fusarium semitectum

Abstract

This study reports the isolation and characterization of three new tetrapeptides, apicidins G (1), H (2) and I (3), along with the known apicidin (4), apicidin A (5), apicidin C (6), diketopiperazine 7, equisetin (8) and 7-hydroxy-2-(2-hydroxypropyl)-5-methylchromone (9). The structures of the new compounds were deduced by 2D NMR spectroscopic and MS data.
