Abstract
4-(3′-Acetyl-2′,6′-dihydroxy-5′-methylphenyl)-4-hydroxy-2-methoxybutanoic acid (globoscinic acid) and 5-(3′-acetyl-2′,6′-dihydroxy-5′-methylphenyl)-3-methoxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrofuran-2-one (globoscin) have been isolated as mixtures of optically active epimers from the culture media of the fungus Xylaria globosa and the fungus Xylaria obovata. Their structure determination by chemical and physical methods and their labile properties are described.
