Roquefortine E, a diketopiperazine from an Australian isolate of Gymnoascus reessii

J Nat Prod. 2005 Nov;68(11):1661-4. doi: 10.1021/np0503101.

Abstract

The new isoprenylated diketopiperazine roquefortine E (6) has been isolated from an Australian soil isolate of the ascomycete Gymnoascus reessii. The known fungal metabolite roquefortine C (1) was also recovered as the major antibacterial principle, and all structures were assigned by detailed spectroscopic analysis.
