Terreulactones A, B, C, and D: novel acetylcholinesterase inhibitors produced by Aspergillus terreus. II. Physico-chemical properties and structure determination.
Terreulactones A, B, C, and D, new meroterpenoid compounds with potent anti-acetylcholinesterase activity, were determined to be mixed polyketides-terpenoid structures by spectroscopic studies.
