Waikikiamides A-C ( 1 - 3 ), structurally complex diketopiperazine derivatives, and putative biogenic precursors, (+)-semivioxanthin ( 4 ), notoamide F ( 5 ), and (-)-notoamide A ( 6 ), were isolated from Aspergillus sp. FM242. 1 and 2 , bearing a hendecacyclic ring system, represent a novel skeleton. 3 features the first unique heterodimer of two notoamide analogs with an N-O-C bridge. Compounds 1 and 3 exhibit antiproliferative activity with IC 50 values in the range of 0.56 to 1.86 μM. The gene clusters mined from the sequenced genome support their putative biosynthetic pathways.
