A new indene derivative named phomoindene A (1) and four known compounds were isolated from the marine fungus Phomopsis sp. (No. GX7-4A). Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods, mainly 1D and 2D NMR. Preliminary pharmacological tests revealed that phomoindene A exhibited little cytotoxic activity towards KB, KBv 200, and MCF-7 cell lines.
