Popis: Six new compounds, aristoloxazine A (1), aristoloxazine B (2), 7-methoxytaliscanine (3), humul-7-en-1,4,11-triol (4), 8-hydroxy-β-logipinene (5), and 1β-hydroxy-4(14)-eudesmene (6), corresponding to two sulfur-containing aristoloxazines (1 and 2), an aristolactam (3), and three sesquiterpenes (4–6) were isolated, along with 26 known compounds, from the roots of Aristolochia orbicularis. The structures of the new compounds were established based on their spectroscopic and spectrometric data and in the case of aristoloxazine A (1) by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. This is the first report of sulfur-containing aristoloxazines from a natural source. Furthermore, aristoloxazine A (1) was found to possess potent in vitro antimicrobial activity against all resistant Staphylococcus aureus and several fungal strains in which it was evaluated.
