A new antifungal compound, named N-demethyltyroscherin (1), was discovered from the static fungal cultured material of Scedosporium apiospermum FKJ-0499 isolated from a deep-sea sediment sample together with a known compound, tyroscherin (2). The structure of 1 was elucidated as a new analog of 2 by MS and NMR analyses. The absolute configuration of 1 was determined by chemical derivatization. Both compounds showed potent in vitro antifungal activity against clinically isolated Candida auris strains, with MIC values ranging from 0.0625 to 4 µg ml -1 .
