Chemical analysis of the fruiting bodies of the agaricoid fungus Cortinarius subtortus yielded three new natural products, two quinoline and one isocarbostyryl alkaloid. The structures of compounds 1−3 were determined by analysis of NMR and MS data. Compound 1 exhibited inhibitory effects against the phytopathogenic fungus Colletotrichum coccodes. All three compounds displayed moderate antioxidant activity in a DPPH free radical scavenging bioassay.
Four β-carboline alkaloids, brunneins A–C (1–3) and 3-(7-hydroxy-9H-β-carboline-1-yl)propanoic acid (4), were isolated from fruiting bodies of the agaricoid fungus Cortinarius brunneus. The structures of 1–3 were determined by analysis of NMR and MS data, and the structure of compound 4 was determined by comparison with published data. Brunnein A (1) exhibited very low cholinesterase inhibitory effects and no cytotoxicity.
