Bioactivity‐guided fractionation of the cytotoxic extract of Aspergillus niger , an endophytic fungus from the Chinese liverwort Heteroscyphus tener ( Steph .) Schiffn ., afforded five new naphtho‐ γ ‐pyrones, rubrofusarin‐6‐ O ‐ α ‐ D ‐ ribofuranoside ( 1 ), ( R )‐10‐(3‐succinimidyl)‐TMC‐256A1 ( 2 ), asperpyrone E ( 3 ), isoaurasperone A ( 4 ), and isoaurasperone F ( 5 ), as well as four known ones, dianhydroaurasperone C ( 6 ), aurasperone D ( 7 ), asperpyrone D ( 8 ), and asperpyrone A ( 9 ), together with a cytotoxic cyclic pentapeptide, malformin A 1 ( 10 ). Their structures were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of dimeric naphtho‐ γ ‐pyrones 3 – 9 were also determined by analysis of their respective CD spectra.
