TL;DR: In this study, ethyl acetate and aqueous fractions from 117 collections of Australian macrofungi belonging to the mushroom genus Cortinarius were screened for antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa and overall, the lipophilic fractions were more active than the aQueous fractions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tandem Michael–Dieckmann/Claisen reaction of ortho-toluates—the Staunton–Weinreb annulation
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of pyran and pyranone natural products.
TL;DR: An overview of the synthesis of the fungal metabolites, plus methodology leading potentially toward extended quinones such as (3S,3'S)-xylindein, and the enantiopure ventiloquinones L, E and G are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pigments of fungi. Part 68. Synthesis and absolute configuration of thysanone
TL;DR: The (1R,3S)-absolute stereochemistry of thysanone 1, a fungal benzoisochromquinone with potent human rhinovirus 3C-protease inhibitory activity, was established for the first time by total synthesis of the natural product from ethyl (S)-lactate and CD comparison with authentic material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Naphthopyranones – isolation, bioactivity, biosynthesis and synthesis
TL;DR: A survey of methods reported for the synthesis of naphthopyranone natural products is presented and their isolation, biosynthesis and biological activity are presented.
