Abstract

A new platelet aggregation inhibitor, bassiatin, was isolated from the cultured broth of Beauveria bassiana which had been isolated from a soil sample collected in Yunnan province, China. The structure of bassiatin was determined to be (3S, 6R)-4-methyl-6-(1-methylethyl)-3-phenylmethyl-1, 4-perhydrooxazine-2,5-dione by NMR analysis, X-ray crystallographic analysis and chemical synthesis. Bassiatin inhibited ADP-induced aggregation of rabbit platelets with the IC50 being 1.9 x 10(-4) M.
