Key points

  • Spiroinonotsuoxotriols A ( 1 ) and B ( 2 ), two highly rearranged pentacyclic triterpenoids featuring a novel 7(8 → 9)abeo-21,24-cyclo-lanostane skeleton, together with their proposed precursors 3 - 5, were isolated from the sclerotia of the white-rot fungus Inonotus obliquus
  • Their structures including the absolute configurations were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses and single-crystal X-ray diffraction
  • The biogenetic pathway of 1 and 2 was proposed
  • Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity as compared with the positive control acarbose
