A new sordarin derivative, trichosordarin A (1), with a unique norditerpene aglycone was isolated from the culture of a marine-sediment-derived fungal strain, Trichoderma harzianum R5. Its structure and relative configuration were unequivocally identified by a combination of 1D/2D NMR, IR, and mass spectrometric methods. Compound 1 was assayed to be toxic to the marine zooplankton Artemia salina.
