Chemical investigations of the cytotoxic extract of the marine-derived fungus <i>Curvularia</i> sp. (strain no. 768), isolated from the red alga <i>Acanthophora spicifera</i>, yielded the novel macrolide apralactone A (<b>1</b>), as well as the antipodes of curvularin macrolides <b>2-7</b>. Compound <b>8</b>, a dimeric curvularin was recognised as an artefact. The structures of <b>1-8</b> were elucidated by interpretation of their spectroscopic data (1D and 2D NMR, CD, MS, UV and IR). Apralacton ...[more]
