“…Representative structures of fungi are puberulic acid, puberulonic acid, stipitatic acid and related structures (Corbett et al, 1950;Iwatsuki et al, 2011). More complex known compounds are epolone A or B, pycnidione, eupenifeldin or fusariocin C (Ito et al, 1981;Mayerl et al, 1993;Cai et al, 1998), which structurally share the fused tropolone/dihydropyran ring structure with the malettinins. However, malettinins 1-4 are unique with regard to their linkage of the tropolone/dihydropyran ring to a furan.…”
