a The workflow combined automated in-silico MS/MS and NMR annotation tools for fast compound class identification and dereplication of known natural products exemplified by the new natural product rivulariapeptolide 1185. b Molecular networking and SMART analysis suggested the presence of an Ahp-cyclodepsipeptide molecular family. c In-depth MS and MS/MS analysis of the new natural products with SIRIUS helped to establish the molecular formula and substructural information about the characteristic N-acylated proline residues. d Unambiguous structure elucidation by various 1D/2D NMR and MS/MS experiments led to the planar structure of rivulariapeptolide 1185. Selected 2D NMR-derived correlations and MS² fragmentations are depicted. The distinctive structural moieties are highlighted in blue bubbles and are described in the associated blue captions of panels bd. Residues (R1–R4) highlighted in red represent unknown structural elements at the current analysis stage in panels bd.
