Chemical examination of a coral‐associated fungus Aspergillus versicolor LZD ‐44‐03 resulted in the isolation of two new compounds with the trivial names of varicuothiols A ( 1 ) and B ( 2 ) as a unique scaffold. Their structures were determined through extensive spectroscopic analyses in association with the modified Mosher 's method and chemical conversion. Both 1 and 2 exhibited significant inhibition against LPS ‐induced RAW 24.7 cell proliferation, in association with the down regulation of nitrite production and cytokines ( MCP ‐1, IL ‐6, and TNF ‐ α ).
