he marine habitat is a rich source of bioactive natural
compounds with pharmaceutical potential. Some of them are
novel compoundwithnovelmechanisms of action.Marinederived
fungi isolated from marine species such as sponges, anemone,
tunicate and etc. have become a focus of interest. Numerous
studies about diverse and unique compounds of marine fungi
and their biological activities including antimicrobial, anticancer,
anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties have been reported.
As part of our ongoing chemical investigation of biologically
active metabolites from marine fungi, two known compounds,
echinuline and preechinulin have been isolated from the marine-
derived fungus A. chevaliari. The structures of the metabolites
were determined on the basis of mass spectroscopy and NMR
experiments.
