Viburspiran (8), a structurally new member of the maleic anhydride natural products, was isolated, along with seven known compounds 9-15, from the fungal endophyte Cryptosporiopsis sp. The structure of the new compound was elucidated by spectroscopic methods and confirmed by singlecrystal X-ray analysis. The absolute configuration was estab-lished by TDDFT CD calculations by using the solid-state structure for input geometry. Viburspiran (8) is the first representative of a new class of eight-membered maleic anhydride natural products, named octadrides and exhibited antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea and Microbotryum violaceum.
