Six new highly oxidized seco-terpenoids, including three 3-nor-labdane type diterpenes, talaroterpenoids A–C (1–3), and three meroterpenoids containing an orthoester group, talaroterpenoids D–F (6–8), together with five known compounds (4–5 and 9–11), were isolated from the marine-derived fungus Talaromyces aurantiacus. Their chemical structures were elucidated through 1D, 2D NMR, HRESIMS, J-based configuration analysis (JBCA), computational ECD calculations, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 contain an unusual 6,20-γ-lactone-bridged scaffold. Compounds 10 and 11 presented inhibitory effects on NO release in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced BV-2 cells with IC50 values of 11.47 and 11.32 μM, respectively. Talaroterpenoid C (3) showed moderate antifungal activity against A. alternata and P. theae Steyaert.
