    Abstract:
    The first triketone-phloroglucinol-monoterpene hybrids, callistrilones A and B (1 and 2), along with a postulated biosynthetic intermediate (3) were isolated from the leaves of Callistemon rigidus. Compounds 1 and 2 featured a new carbon skeleton with an unprecedented [1]benzofuro[2,3-a]xanthene or [1]benzofuro[3,2-b]xanthene pentacyclic ring system composed of three kinds of building blocks. Their structures and absolute configurations were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, X-ray diffraction, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. A plausible biogenetic pathway for the new compounds is also proposed. Compound 1 exhibited moderate antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria including multiresistant strains.
