Abstract
Hitoyol A and B, isolated from the culture broth of Basidiomycete Coprinopsis cinerea (NBRC 100011), are novel skeletal norsesquiterpenoids. Their structures and absolute configurations were determined by the extensive spectroscopic analyses including X-ray and ECD. Hitoyol A was possibly biosynthesized from a known sesquiterpenoid lagopodin B via a decarboxylation-induced cyclization. Hitoyol B showed weak anti-malarial activity (IC50 = 59 μM).
