Abstract

:
An unusual meroterpenoid, dysidinoid A (1), was isolated from the South China Sea sponge Dysidea sp. Its structure was elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods including HRESIMS and 2D NMR, and its absolute configuration was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Dysidinoid A (1) is the first meroterpenoid from Nature bearing a 9,4-friedodrime skeleton and a 2,5-dionepyrrole unit. Dysidinoid A (1) showed potent antibacterial activity against two strains of pathogenic bacteria methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with MIC90 values of 8.0 μg/mL against both.

Graphical Abstract

1. Introduction

Infectious diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Emerging infections due to methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) pose a significant threat to patients [1,2]. It has been estimated that in the United States more people die from MRSA related infections than from HIV [3]. Infections involving drug resistant bacteria are more difficult to treat due to increased costs and decreased efficacies [4,5]. One important approach to drug discovery for the treatment of MRSA is through natural products research.
Marine sponges of the genus Dysidea (order Dictyoceratida, family Dydideidae) have proven to be prolific producers of structurally diverse secondary metabolites, such as sesequiterpene quinones [6,7,8], sesquiterpenoids [9], diterpenoids [10], sterols [11], and polychlorinated compounds [12,13,14]. These metabolites showed a spectrum of interesting biological activities, including antifungal [15], antibacterial [16], antitumor [17,18], anti-inflammatory [15,19], and antioxidative activities [20].
In our efforts to search for new anti-MRSA agents from marine sponges collected from the South China Sea, chemical investigation of an active fraction from the sponge Dysidea sp. resulted in the isolation of a novel meroterpenoid, dysidinoid A (1) (Figure 1). It is the first meroterpenoid from Nature bearing a 9,4-friedodrime skeleton and a 2,5-dionepyrrole. Antibacterial evaluation showed that dysidinoid A showed potent antibacterial activity against two strains of pathogenic bacteria MRSA with MIC90 values of 8.0 μg/mL against both. Details of structural elucidation and antibacterial activity of dysidinoid A (1) were reported herein.

2. Results and Discussion

Dysidinoid A (1) was obtained as colorless needles with Molecules 19 18025 i001 +35.4 (c 0.50, MeOH). Its IR spectrum showed absorption bands assignable to amide (3276 cm−1) and carbonyl (1775 and 1714) functionalities. The positive ESIMS of 1 exhibited quasimolecular ion peaks at m/z 302.2 [M+H]+ and 324.2 [M+Na]+, respectively. The molecular formula of C19H27NO2 with seven degrees of unsaturation, was deduced from HRESIMS at m/z 324.1941 [M+Na]+ (calcd. for C19H27NO2, 324.1939), which was supported by the 1H- and 13C-NMR data (Table 1). The 1H-NMR spectrum of 1 showed resonances attributable to two olefinic protons at δH 5.16 (H-3) and 6.26 (H-18), three tertiary methyl groups at δH 1.55 (H3-11), 1.00 (H3-12), and 0.88 (H3-14), a secondary methyl group at δH 0.95 (H3-13). In addition, the spectrum showed resonances due to an exchangable amine proton at δH 7.33 (20-NH), as well as partially overlapping signals with complex coupling patterns between δH 1.08 and 2.61 that could be attributed to several aliphatic methylene and methine units. The 13C-NMR and DEPT spectra of 1 showed 19 carbon resonances, corresponding to two carbonyl groups (δC 171.7 and 170.4), two olefinic quaternary carbons (δC 143.9 and 147.9), two aliphatic quaternary carbons (δC 38.3 and 42.4), two olefinic methine carbons (δC 120.5 and 130.4), two aliphatic methine carbons (δC 37.4 and 47.0), five aliphatic methylene carbons (δC 19.0, 26.3, 36.2, 27.4, and 32.5), and four methyl carbons (δC 17.7, 19.8, 16.3, and 18.0). The above spectroscopic signatures suggested the presence of a 9,4-friedodrime sesquiterpene moiety and accounted for four degrees of unsaturation, indicating three rings in the structure of 1.

a Assignments of the 13C and 1H signals were made on the basis of HSQC spectroscopic data.
Unambiguous assignment of NMR data of 1 was achieved by a combination of COSY, HSQC, and HMBC experiments, as depicted in Figure 2. In the 1H-1H COSY spectrum, the correlations of H2-1/H2-2/H-3, H2-6/H2-7/H-8/H3-13, and allylic coupling correlations of H-3/H3-11 revealed the presence of two fragments (thick lines in Figure 2). The two spin systems and their connectivity with the remaining atoms enabled assembly into the final planar structure based upon the HMBC spectrum of 1. The HMBC correlations from H3-11 to C-3, C-4, and C-5, from H3-12 to C-4, C-5, C-6 and C-10, from H3-13 to C-7, C-8, and C-9, and H3-14 to C-8, C-9, C-10, and C-15 indicated the presence of 9,4-friedodrime sesquiterpene skeleton with four methyl groups at C-4, C-5, C-8, and C-9, respectively. This assignment was confirmed by the HMBC correlations from H-10 to C-2, C-4, C-5, C-9, C-12, C-14, and C-15. Furthermore, the olefinic proton H-18 showed HMBC correlations with C-15, C-16, and C-19, in combination with the chemical shifts of the proton and carbon resonances, suggested the presence of a 2,5-dionepyrrole substructure. In addition, HMBC correlations from the methylene protons H2-15 to C-8, C-9, C-10, C-14, C-16, C-17, and C-18 supported the linkage of C-9 and C-16 via the methylene CH2-15 between the 9,4-friedodrime sesquiterpene moiety and 2,5-dionepyrrole substructure. Therefore, the gross structure of 1 was determined as shown in Figure 2.

Molecules 19 18025 g002
The relative configuration of 1 was deduced from NOESY correlations in combination with coupling constant values. The large coupling constant between H-1β and H-10 (J = 12.4 Hz) and the NOESY correlations of H-1β/H3-12 and H3-14 indicated the axial orientations of these protons and methyls and also revealed the trans fusion of the two six-numbered rings [15,18]. The NOESY correlation of H3-13/H3-14 and H3-12/H3-14 revealed the three methyl groups are all β-orientation, while NOESY correlations from H-8 to H-6α, and H-10 suggested the three protons were α-orientation.
Fortunately, crystals of 1 suitable for single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis were obtained from a methanol solution. The relative configuration of 1 was unambiguously established by its X-ray crystal structure (Figure 3). Besides, a final refinement of the CuKa diffraction data resulted in the assignment of the absolute configuration of 1 as 5S, 8S, 9R, and 10S.
Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was detected to evaluate the antimicrobial activities of dysidinoid A (1) toward two strains of hospital-acquired methicillin-resitant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA H0556 and MRSAH0117). Dysidinoid A (1) showed potent inhibitory activity against MRSA with MIC90 values of 8 μg/mL, and chloromycetin was used as positive control (MIC90 2 μg/mL), while methicillin was used as negative control (MIC90 128 μg/mL).
