Meroterpenoids from the fruiting bodies of higher fungus Ganoderma resinaceum.

Phytochemical investigation on the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma resinaceum led to the isolation of five new meroterpenoids, namely ganoresinains A–E ( 1 – 5 ), and four known analogues ( 6 – 9 ). The new compounds were identified by extensive analyses of spectroscopic data (NMR, MS, UV, and IR) and comparison with the literature data. Compound 1 and 6 were isolated as enantiomeric mixture, which were separated over analytical chiral HPLC chromatography. Compounds 6–9 were isolated from G . resinaceum for the first time.
