[Studies on the chemical constituents of a fungus producing perylenequinones].
OBJECTIVE
To study the chemical constituents in the mycelia of Hypomyces sp..


METHODS
Silica gel column chromatography was employed for the isolation and purification. Chemical and spectral methods were used to determine the structures of the isolated compounds.


RESULTS
Two compounds were isolated and identified as: hypomycin C (I) and hypomycin D (II).


CONCLUSIONS
Compounds I and II are new compounds.
