Among 37 species of microbial strains, Cunninghamella echinulata AS 3.3400 were found to possess the ability to transform honokiol to (R)-magnolignan C (1) and (S)-magnolignan C (2) by regio-specific oxidation...Among 37 species of microbial strains, Cunninghamella echinulata AS 3.3400 were found to possess the ability to transform honokiol to (R)-magnolignan C (1) and (S)-magnolignan C (2) by regio-specific oxidation. Among them, 1 was a new compound. The structures of two compounds were determined by the analyses of CD, MS and NMR spectroscopic data.展开更多
Microbial transformation of pregnane-3β,16β,20-triol (1) by Cunninghamella echinulata afforded four previ- ously unreported polyhydroxylated steroids, namely pregnane-3β,14a,16β,20-tetrol (2), pregnane-3-oxo-1...Microbial transformation of pregnane-3β,16β,20-triol (1) by Cunninghamella echinulata afforded four previ- ously unreported polyhydroxylated steroids, namely pregnane-3β,14a,16β,20-tetrol (2), pregnane-3-oxo-14a, 16β,20-triol (3), pregnane-3-oxo-7β,16β,20-triol (4), and pregnane-3fl,7β,16β,20-tetrol (5). The structures of these metabolites were established by means of spectroscopic analysis (1D and 2D NMR as well as HRESIMS analysis).展开更多
