Guanacastepene A
OAcO OH
H O
Guanacastepene A
Isolated in 2000
Produced by the endophytic fungus CR115
Fungus isolated from the branch of a Daphnopsis americana tree from the Guanacaste Conservation Area in Costa Rica
Structure determined by NMR and X-ray crystallography
Mixture of two slowly interconverting conformers

CR115 produces a family of related but structurally diverse metabolites
15 different guanacastepenes comprise five ring systems
All contain the 5-7-6 tricyclic guanacastepene skeleton

15 Guanacastepene A showed antibiotic activity against drug-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis
Guanacastepene I showed antibacterial activity towards S. aureus
C-15 aldehyde or masked aldehyde appears to be necessary for activity
Guanacastepene A also displays nonselective hemolytic activity against human blood cells
Suggests nonspecific membrane lysis is the mode of action

Increased dilution favours cyclization – suggests intermolecular pathway

workup with D2O – no exchange of I for D no remaining vinyllithium
Is enolizable cyclopentanone serving as a proton source?
