New Antifungal Metabolites from the Mariana Trench Sediment-Associated Actinomycete Streptomyces sp. SY1965.

New streptothiazolidine A (1), streptodiketopiperazines A (2) and B (3), and (S)-1-(3-ethylphenyl)-1,2-ethanediol (4), together with eight known compounds (5-12), were isolated from the Mariana Trench sediment-associated actinomycete Streptomyces sp. SY1965. The racemic mixtures of (±)-streptodiketopiperazine (2 and 3) and (±)-1-(3-ethylphenyl)-1,2-ethanediol (4 and 5) were separated on a chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) column. Structures of the new compounds were elucidated by their high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (HRESIMS) data and extensive nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic analyses. Streptothiazolidine A is a novel salicylamide analogue with a unique thiazolidine-contained side chain and its absolute configuration was established by a combination of nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) experiment, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and 13C NMR calculations. New streptothiazolidine A (1) and streptodiketopiperazines A (2) and B (3) showed antifungal activity against Candida albicans with MIC values of 47, 42, and 42 g/mL, respectively.
