Abstract: The exploration of freshwater ascomycetes, which have undergone only limited investigation, may provide opportunities both to characterize new genera/species of fungi and to uncover new chemical diversity. In this study, seven acetophenone derivatives, madisone, 4'-methoxymadisone, dehydromadisone, 2?-methoxymadisone, dihydroallovisnaginone, dimadisone, and 4'-methoxydimadisone were characterized from an organic extract of a recently described Lindgomyces madisonensis (G416) culture, which was isolated from submerged wood collected in a stream in North Carolina. Madisone, dehydromadisone, 2?-methoxymadisone, dimadisone and 4'-demethoxydimadisone have not been reported previously, while 4'-methoxymadisone and dihydroallovisnaginone were previously unknown as natural products. Their structures were assigned on the basis of NMR and HRESIMS data, with the structure of madisone supported by X-ray crystallography. The antimicrobial activities of madisone, 4'-methoxymadisone and dihydroallovisnaginone were evaluated against a panel of bacteria and fungi. A heat map analysis of the surface of a G416 culture showed that most of the isolated compounds concentrated in the guttate compared with the vegetative mycelium of the fungus.
