title: Anthracobic acids A and B, two polyketides, produced by an endophytic fungus Anthracobia sp.
abstract: Two new polyketides, anthracobic acids A and B (1 and 2, resp.), were isolated from a cultured endophytic fungus, Anthracobia sp. The NMR study revealed that both anthracobic acids contain a carboxylic acid conjugated tetraene attached to an octahydronaphthalene moiety. Both compounds showed antimicrobial activity.
