Abstract

:
Trichodermanins C–E (13), new diterpenes with a rare fused 6-5-6-6 ring system, have been isolated from a fungus Trichoderma harzianum OUPS-111D-4 separated from a piece of a marine sponge Halichondria okadai, and these chemical structures have been established by spectroscopic analyses using IR, MASS, HRFABMS, and NMR spectra. We established their absolute stereostructures by application of the modified Mosher’s method. In addition, 1 inhibited the growth of cancer cell lines potently.

Graphical Abstract

1. Introduction

A number of marine-derived compounds have unique structures, some of which exhibit significant biological activities [1,2]. Our purpose is to seed research into antitumor chemotherapy agent from marine microorganisms, and we have reported many cytotoxic metabolites to date [3,4,5,6]. In this study, we examined the metabolites of a fungus T. harzianum separated from a piece of a marine sponge H. okadai. We have already reported the isolation, structure determination, and cytotoxicity of tandyukisins A–F [7,8,9]. In this continuing search for cytotoxic metabolites from this fungal strain, we isolated three new compounds, trichodermanins C–E (13), classified as diterpene with a rare fused 6-5-6-6 ring system. Previously reported metabolites consisting of this ring system are trichodermanin A [10], and wickerols A and B, which exhibit anti-influenza activity; however, wickerol B possesses the same structure as trichodermanin A [11]. We herein report the first determination of the absolute configurations of 13 by application of the modified Mosher’s method [12]. In addition, we describe the first examination of the cytotoxic activities of trichodermanins C–E (13).

2. Results and Discussion

This fungus was incubated at 27 °C for 6 weeks in a medium (70 L) containing 1% glucose, 1% malt extract, and 0.05% peptone in artificial seawater adjusted to pH 7.5. After the filtration of culture broth, it was extracted using ethyl acetate, and the concentrated material was purified by column chromatography using silica gel and octa decyl silyl HPLC to afford trichodermanins C (1) (2.5 mg), D (2) (0.6 mg), and E (3) (1.3 mg) as pale yellow oil, respectively (Figure 1).
The molecular formula of trichodermanin C (1) has been determined as C20H32O3 from the molecular weight 343.2247 [M + Na]+ in HRFABMS. Absorptions in the IR spectrum at 3412 and 1694 cm−1 indicate the presence of hydroxy and carbonyl groups, respectively. A consideration of the 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 1 (Table 1 and Table S1) using DEPT and heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence spectroscopy (HMQC) suggested the functional groups as below; i.e., this compound had one secondary methyl (C-17), four tertiary methyls (C-16, C-18, C-19, and C-20), five sp3-hybridized methylenes (C-2, C-7, C-9, C-13, and C-14), five sp3-methines (C-3, C-6, C-10, C-11, and C-12), one of which is an oxygen-bearing sp3-methine (C-10), four quaternary sp3-carbons (C-4, C-5, C-8, and C-15), one of which is an oxygen-bearing quaternary sp3-carbon (C-15), and one carbonyl group (C-1). 1H-1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY) revealed four partial structures (Figure 2). In the HMBC spectrum (Figure 2), the correlation from 15-methyl to C-11, C14, and C-15, from 8-methyl to C-7, C-8, C-9, and C-12, from germinal dimethyl (H-18 and H-19) to C-4, C-5, and C-6, and from H-12 to C-4, C-5, and H-13 showed that two cyclohexane rings and a cyclopentane made up a fused 6-5-6 ring system. In addition, the correlation from 3-methyl to C-4, from H-2, H-6, and H-7 to C-1, and from H-12 and H-13 to C-3 revealed the ring junction to C-4 and C-6 of a cyclohexanone ring. This evidence elucidated the planar structure of 1 as shown in Figure 1. The study for the stereochemistry of 1 is described later together with that of 2.
Trichodermanin D (2) was assigned C20H34O3, which contained two more hydrogen atoms than 1. The NMR spectral features (Table 1 and Table S2) resembled those of 1 except for the proton signal of H-1 (δH 1.90, ddd and δH 1.98, ddd), H-2 (δH 1.64, m and δH 2.12, m), and H-7 (δH 1.56, m and δH 1.62, m), and the carbon signals of C-1 (δC 35.5), C-2 (δC 29.5), C-5 (δC 44.1), C-6 (δC 74.9), C-7 (δC 51.2), C-18 (δC 18.3), and C-19 (δC 19.4) in 2, and suggested that a carbonyl group at C-1 and an sp3-methine at C-6 in 1 disappear, and a methylene and an oxygen-bearing quaternary sp3-carbon newly appear in 2. The 1H-1H COSY correlation between H-1 and H-2 showed that a carbonyl group at C-1 in 1 was replaced with a methylene in 2 (Figure 2). In the HMBC spectrum, the correlations for the 6-5-6-6 skeleton were observed as those of 1 (Table S2). In addition, the HMBC correlation from H-1, H-7, and germinal dimethyl (H-18 and H-19) to C-6, and from H-7 to C-1 revealed that C-6 was a quaternary sp3-carbon bearing a hydroxyl group (Figure 2). The above evidence established the planar structure of 2.
For the stereochemistry of 1 and 2, their relative configurations and conformations were examined by NOESY experiments (Tables S1 and S2, and Figure 3). In the NOESY experiment of 1, NOESY correlations from H-2α to H-19, and from H-3 to H-11, H-14β, and H-20 showed that the cyclohexenone ring existed in a half boat conformation with 3-CH3 in the α-orientation. For the stereochemistry of two cyclohexane rings, NOESY correlations (H-7α/H-12 and H-18, H-11/H-20, H-12/H-16 and H-18, H-13 α/H-18, and H-14β/H-17) demonstrated that 5-CH3 (C-18), H-7α, H-12, 8-CH3 (C-20), H-11, H-13a, H-14b, and 15-CH3 (C-16) oriented in coaxial arrangements. This revealed that the ring juncture for two cyclohexane rings was trans, and both rings existed in a chair conformation, respectively (Figure 3 and Table S1). In addition, the presence of a β-orienting hydroxy group in the cyclopentane was deduced from observed NOESY correlations between H-10 and H-12, and between H-10 and H-16. On the other hand, a detailed examination of NOESY for 2 led to the finding that the relative configuration was the same as that of 1 (Table S2). A significant difference in the structural features of 1 and 2 from wickerols [8] was the presence of a secondary hydroxyl group in the cyclopentane ring; therefore, we applied the modified Mosher’s method [11] to determine their absolute stereostructures. The 1H chemical shift differences between the (S)- and (R)-MTPA esters 1a/1b and 2a/2b revealed an R configuration at C-10, respectively (Figure 4).
Trichodermanin E (3) had the same molecular formula as 2 by HRFABMS data. In 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 3, remarkable differences from those of 2 were observed at some positions (Table 1 and Table S3). The differences in the NMR chemical shifts at H-1 (δH 4.11), H-2 (δH 3.88), H-3 (δH 1.88), H-10 (δH 1.59, 1.80), C-1 (δC 80.4), C-2 (δC 83.7), C-3 (δC 36.6), C-6 (δC 53.2), C-7 δC 40.9), C-9 (δC 43.5), C-10 (δC 21.6), and C-11 (δC 44.2) in 3 from those in 2 were caused by the change in the linkage position of the two hydroxy groups, i.e., 3 was a position isomer of 2. The 13C NMR chemical shifts at C-18 (δC 25.7) and C-19 (δC 25.2) were also different from those of 2, but were close to those of 1. The 1H-1H COSY correlations (H-17/H-3, H-3/H-2, and H-2/H-1) and the chemical shifts of H-1 and H-2 suggested that two hydroxyl groups were present at C-1 and C-2, respectively (Figure 2, Table 1 and Table S3). On the other hand, the correlations (H-9/H-10, H-10/H-11, and H-11/H-12) and the chemical shifts of H-10 showed that the hyroxy methine at C-10 in 1 and 2 replace the methylene in 3 (Figure 2, Table 1 and Table S3). In the HMBC spectrum, the common correlations with those of 1 and 2 led to the construction of the 6-5-6-6 ring system (Table S3). In addition, the HMBC correlation from H-1 to C-5, C-6, and C-7 confirmed the planar structure of 3. The NOESY correlation between H-1 and H-20 showed that 1-OH oriented to the β-configuration in equatorial arrangement. In addition, the correlations between H-2 and H-19 demonstrated that 2-OH oriented to the β-configuration in equatorial arrangement (Table S3). The analysis of NOESY revealed that the relative configurations of the chiral centers in 3 were identified with those of the above metabolites except for C-1 and C-2; therefore, we deduced the absolute stereostructure of 3, as shown in Figure 1, together with the consideration that 13 were metabolites derived from the same fungal strain, as shown in Figure 1.
As a primary screen for antitumor activity, the cancer cell growth inhibitory properties of trichodermanins C–E (13) were examined using murine P388 leukemia, human HL-60 leukemia, and murine L1210 leukemia cell lines. The results were shown in Table 2. Compound 1, which has a carbonyl group at C-1, exhibited significant cytotoxic activity against these cancer cells. We believe that the discovery of these related metabolites produced by the fungus T. harzianum can help us to resolve structure-activity relationships.

3. Conclusions

In this study, three new terpenes with a rare fused 6-5-6-6 ring system, trichodermanins C–E (13), were isolated from the fungus T. harzianum separated from the marine sponge, H. okadai. Spectral analyses and chemical transformation were utilized to elucidate the absolute stereostructures of these compounds. In the cytotoxic assay using three cancer cell lines, 1 exhibited significant activity.

4.4. Formation of the (S)- and (R)-MTPA Esters of 1

To a solution of 1 (2.1 mg, 6.6 µmol) in abs. pyridine (0.3 mL), (R)-(−)-MTPA chloride (5.0 mg, 19.8 µmol) was added, and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h.

4.6. Assay for Cytotoxicity

Cytotoxic activities of 13 were examined with the 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) method. P388, HL-60, and L1210 cells were cultured in Roswell Park Memorial Institute 1640 Medium (10% fetal calf serum) at 37 °C in 5% CO2. The test materials were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to give a concentration of 10 mM, and the solution was diluted with the Essential Medium to yield concentrations of 200, 20, and 2 μM, respectively. Each solution was combined with each cell suspension (1 × 10−5 cells/mL) in the medium, respectively. After incubating at 37 °C for 72 h in 5% CO2, grown cells were labeled with 5 mg/mL MTT in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), and the absorbance of formazan dissolved in 20% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in 0.1 N HCl was measured at 540 nm with a microplate reader (MTP-310, CORONA electric, Ibaragi, Japan). Each absorbance values were expressed as a percentage relative to that of the control cell suspension that was prepared without the test substance using the same procedure as that described above. All assays were performed three times, semilogarithmic plots were constructed from the averaged data, and the effective dose of the substance required to inhibit cell growth by 50% (IC50) was determined.
