Abstract
The microbiological transformation of a sesquiterpene lactone, (−)-α-santonin was carried out by using Aspergillus niger MIL 5024 and MIL 5025. Strain MIL 5024 brings about the transformation of (−)-α-santonin (400 mg) to 11-hydroxy-(−)-α-santonin (P1) (50.4 mg), 3,6,9-trihydroxy-9,10-seco-selina-1,3,5(10)-trien-12-oic acid-12,6-lactone (P2) (22.4 mg), and 3,6-dihydroxy-9,10-seco-selina-1,3,5(10)-trien-9,12-dioic acid-12,6-lactone (P3) (27.1 mg), which were isolated and characterized by UV, IR, mass and 1H-NMR spectroanalyses. All of these products are described for the first time. Results similar to those with MIL 5024 were also obtained from the transformation of (−)-α-santonin by the other isolate, strain MIL 5025.
