title: Isolation of pinastric acid and ergosterol from Parmelia caperata (L.) Arch.
abstract: Among other common compounds, pinastric acid and ergosterol were isolated for the first time from Parmelia caperata. The isolation of these compounds is described; identification was made from the melting point and UV, IR, and mass spectral data.
