N-Glucosides of Fairy Chemicals, 2-Azahypoxanthine and 2-Aza-8-oxohypoxanthine, in Rice.

Plant growth stimulators, 2-azahypoxanthine (AHX) and 2-aza-8-oxohypoxanthine (AOH), were isolated from the fairy-ring-forming fungus, Lepista sordida, and AHX-treated rice, respectively. Further metabolites of AHX were detected in AHX-treated rice by HPLC, and the metabolites 1-4 were isolated from the rice. The structures of 1-4 were determined by spectroscopic analysis and synthesis.
