Five acylation derivatives (1a–1e) were prepared by acylation of the bioactive natural product hypoxylin A (1) isolated from Halorosellinia oceanicum. Compounds 1a and 1b were epimers with the configuration inversion of C-10 in 1b. Hypoxylin A (1) and 1a–1e exhibited potent lethal activity toward the brine shrimp Artemia salina. Hypoxylin A (1) also showed cytotoxicity against tumor cell line A549 with an IC50 value of 5.6 μg/mL. The antibacterial activities of these compounds were also evaluated, and none of them were active.
