ABSTRACT: Four new chromones, phomochromenones D-G (1-4), along with four known analogues, diaporchromone A (5), diaporchromanone C (6), diaporchromanone D (7), and phomochromenone C (8), were isolated from the culture of Phomopsis asparagi DHS-48 from Chinese mangrove Rhizophora mangle. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of comprehensive spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of 1 and 4 were assigned on the basis of experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data, and those of enantiomers 2 and 3 were determined by a modified Mosher's method and basic hydrolysis. To the best of our knowledge, phomochromenones D-F (1-4) possessing a 3-substituted-chroman-4-one skeleton are rarely found in natural sources. Diaporchromone A (5) showed moderate to weak immunosuppressive activity against T and/or B lymphocyte cells with IC50 of 34 μM and 117 μM.
