A pair of enantiomers (la and 1b) of an indole alkaloid containing dihydrothiopyran and 1,2,4-thiadiazole rings was isolated from an aqueous extract of the root of Isatis indigotica. The structures and absolute configurations of the enantiomers were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis, especially 2D NMR, modified Mosher's method, and electronic CD (ECD). The proposed biosynthetic pathway and preliminary investigations of the biological activity of compounds la and 1b against influenza virus A/Hanfang/359/95 (H3N2) and HSV-1 are also discussed.
