Shikimerans B―D: New polyketides from the endophytic fungus Chaetomium sp. FZ-4 of Aconitum carmichaelii Debx

Two undescribed shikimic acid derivatives named shikimerans B and C (1 and 2), one new natural compound shikimeran D (3), as well as five known compounds 4−8 were obtained from the EtOAc extract of the endophytic fungus Chaetomium sp. FZ-4. Their structures were determined by the NMR spectroscopy and HRESIMS examination, while the absolute configurations of compounds 1−3 were clarified based on the electronic circular dichroism (ECD) experiment....
