Four new azaphilones named sassaffins A-D (1-4) were isolated from the methanol extract of the stromata of the fungus Creosphaeria sassafras (Xylariaceae, Ascomycetes). Their structures were elucidated by 2D NMR, HR-MS, IR, UV and CD spectroscopy. Sassafrin D (4) possesses a novel skeleton and its biosynthetic pathway is also discussed. In addition, all compounds showed broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. Their apparently unique occurrence in C. sassafras supports the status of this fungus as a member of a distinct genus within the Xylariaceae, coinciding with molecular and morphological traits.
