The addition of metal bromides (NaBr and CaBr2) during fermentation of the marine-mudflat-derived fungus Aspergillus niger induced production of a new radical scavenging brominated naphthopyranone, 6,9-dibromoflavasperone (1); and three known naphtho-gamma-pyranone monomers, flavasperone (2), TMC-256A1 (3), and fonsecin (4); and one naphtho-gamma-pyranone dimer, aurasperone B (5). The structure of 6,9-dibromoflavasperone (1) was assigned through the combination of spectroscopic data analyses and comparison with the spectral data of flavasperone (2). Compounds 1-5 displayed potent radical scavenging activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, with IC50 values of 21, 25, 0.3, 0.02, and 0.01 mu M, respectively, and 3-5 were more potent than the positive control, ascorbic acid (IC50, 20.0 mu M).
