The development of resistance towards the antibiotics in use today has been a source of growing concern in the modern healthcare system around the world. To counter this major threat, there is an urgent need for discovery of new antimicrobials. Many plants, like mangroves, possess highly diversified
To investigate the chemical constituents of the endophytic fungus Penicillium sp. FJ-1 of Ceriops tagal, the chemical constituents were isolated by column chromatography on silica gel and Sephadex LH-20. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis. Their antibacterial
In this review, the literature data on phytochemical and biological investigations of the genus Ceriops are compiled. The Ceriops species are mangrove plants widely distributed along the sea coasts of Africa, Madagascar, South Asia, and South Pacific islands. To date, 43 diterpenes and 29
Three new polyketides, (2S)-2,3-dihydro-5,6-dihydroxy-2-methyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (1), (2'R)-2-(2'-hydroxypropyl)-4-methoxyl-1,3-benzenediol (2), and 4-ethyl-3-hydroxy-6-propenyl-2H-pyran-2-one (3) were isolated from the culture broth of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, an endophytic fungus
Two new compounds (1 and 2), together with six known compounds (3-8), were obtained from the Cladosporium sp. JJM22, an endophytic fungus isolated from the stem bark of the mangrove plant Ceriops tagal collected in South China Sea. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of detailed
One new pentenoic acid derivative, named 1,1'-dioxine-2,2'-dipropionic acid (1) and a new natural product, named 2-methylacetate-3,5,6-trimethylpyrazine (2), along with six known compounds (3-8), were obtained from the Cladosporium sp. JS1-2, an endophytic fungus isolated from the mangrove Ceriops
