    Chromatographic separation of the liquid-state fermented products of the fungal strain Westerdykella dispersa Ca4-13 isolated from an edible oyster Crassostrea angulata collected from Yunlin, Taiwan has resulted in the isolation of compounds 16. The structures of compounds 16 were characterised by spectroscopic analysis to be westeroic acid A, westeroic acid B, auranticin A, auranticin B, pilobolusone C, and epi-radicinol ([Fig. 1]), respectively. Westeroic acid A, a rare C28 polyketide with a 6/6-spiro-linked δ- lactone moiety, and westeroic acid B, a C14 polyketide with a γ-lactone functionality, were previously unreported chemical entities. Of the compounds identified, 1, 2 and 6 exhibited anti-inflammatory activities with IC50 values ranging from 9.5 to 14.7 μM without any cytotoxicity, and compound 4 exhibited anti- Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) activity with an EC50 value of 38.1 μM. The aldehyde group of auanticin B (4) would play a vital role in its anti-EBV activity comparing the activity of 4 with those of its two analogues, auranticin A (3) and pilobolusone C (5).
