Popis: The naturally occurring sesquiterpene squamulosone ( 1 ), isolated from Hyptis verticillata (Labiatae), was synthetically reduced to five analogues that were identified as (1 S ,10 S )-9α-hydroxy- allo -aromadendrane ( 2 ), (1 R ,10 R )-9β-hydroxyaromadendrane ( 3 ), (1 S ,10 S )- allo -aromadendran-9-one ( 4 ), (1 R ,10 R )-aromadendran-9-one ( 5 ) and aromadendra-1,9-diene ( 6 ). Each congener was incubated with the fungus Curvularia lunata ATCC 12017 in two different growth media. All the substrates except the deoxy compound 6 underwent a simple redox reaction. Ketone 5 additionally experienced remote hydroxylation while analogue 6 , possessing a conjugated diene system, was most extensively metabolised. The substrates and products presented here, but one, are all novel.
