Three new fungal polyketide metabolites, chaetocyclinone A to C, were produced by cultures of Chaetomium sp. (strain Go 100/2), which was isolated from marine algae. The structures of the novel compounds were established by detailed spectroscopic analysis. Additionally, an X-ray analysis of chaetocyclinone C (5) was performed. Chaetocyclinone A (1) exhibits inhibitory activity against selected phytopathogenic fungi. The biosynthesis of 1 and 5 was studied by feeding C-13-labelled acetate. The results suggest the polyketide pathway for the isolated metabolites. In the case of chaetocyclinone C (5), we assume an unusual condensation of two highly reactive heptaketide intermediates.
