Antioxidant p-terphenyl compounds in the mushroom Boletopsis leucomelas (PERS.) FAYOD and how they change via cooking.

Antioxidant compounds in the mushroom Boletopsis leucomelas (PERS.) FAYOD were isolated using chromatographic methods, and their structures were determined via detailed analyses using high-resolution atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance. We identified five known p-terphenyl compounds (Bl-I, Bl-II, Bl-III, cycloleucomelon-leukopentaacetat, and Bl-IV) and one p-terphenyl new compound (Bl-VI); we determined the complete structure of cycloleucomelon-leukopentaacetat in this study.
