Meroterpenoids Possibly Produced by a Bacterial Endosymbiont of the Tropical Basidiomycete .

A mycelial culture of the African basidiomycete cf. was studied for biologically active secondary metabolites, and four compounds were isolated from its crude extract derived from shake flask fermentations, using preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The pure metabolites were identified using extensive nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HR-MS).
