Abstract: | Phytochemical investigation of the endophytic fungus Penicillium communeled to the isolation of nine known compounds.Based on the spectroscopic and chemical properties, their structures were identified as 6-acetyl-2α,5-dihydroxy-2-(2-hydroxypropyl)-3α,8-dimethylchroman (1), communol B (2), communol E (3), communol G (4), 2-hydroxy-4-phenylquinoline (5), viridicatol (6), 3-O-methylviridicatin (7), trans-ferulic acid (8), 1,2-benzenediol,4-(2-methoxyethenyl) (9). Compounds 1 and 5-9 were isolated from this fungus for the first time. |
