Abstract

Two rare tetracyclic skeleton alkaloids named perinadines B and C (1 and 2) were isolated as mixtures of epimers from the marine-derived Aspergillus sp. LS116 driven by molecular networking. The planar structures of 1 and 2 were characterized by comprehensive spectroscopic data. Additionally, compounds 1 and 2 showed moderate in vitro antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis with minimum inhibitory concentration values of 32 and 64 μg/mL, respectively. Besides, both of the compounds were evaluated for anti-inflammatory activities in an in vivo zebra fish model.
