A dichloromethane extract of Trichospira verticillata from the Natural Products Discovery Institute was discovered to have good antiplasmodial activity (IC50 ∼5 μg/mL). After purification by liquid-liquid partition and C18 reversed-phase HPLC, four new germacranolide-type sesquiterpenoid lactones named trichospirolides A-D (1-4) were isolated. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by analysis of their 1D and 2D NMR and MS data. The relative and absolute configurations were assigned based on a comparison of calculated and experimental ECD and UV spectra, specific rotations, internuclear distances, and coupling constants for all possible diastereomers for each compound. Among these four compounds, the conjugated dienone 1 displayed the most potent antiplasmodial activity, with an IC50 value of 1.5 μM.
