Hirsutic Hirsutic acid acid CC( (1), was the first first linear triquinane sesquite sesquiterpenoidsrpenoids isolated fr fromom the cultures of Stereum hirsutum inin 1947 1947 [2,3]. [2,3]. The The antibiotic antibiotic coriolin coriolin (2 (),2 ),coriolin coriolin B ( B3), (3 C), ( C4), ( 4and), and hirsutene hirsutene (7) were (7) were purified purified from from the myceliathe mycelia of basidiomycetes of basidiomycetes CoriolusCoriolus consors consors [9–11].[9 –However,11]. However, the initial the initial structures structures of coriolins of coriolins were notwere exactly not exactly right, afterwards right, afterwards their structures their structures and stereochemistry and stereochemistry were revised were by revised the same by theresearch same groupresearch based group on based spectroscopic on spectroscopic analysis, analysis, biogenetic biogenetic consideration consideration and andchemical chemical transformations, transformations, in 1971in 1971 [12].

(−)-Complicatic)-Complicatic acid acid (5 ()5 )was was first first isolated isolated from from the the fungus fungus Stereum Stereum complicatum complicatum in 1973 in 1973 [13]. [13 5-]. Dihydrocoriolin5-Dihydrocoriolin C C(6) ( 6was) was obtained obtained from from CoriolusCoriolus consors consors (ATCC(ATCC 11574) 11574) [14]. [14 ]. Hypnophilin ( (88)) was isolated from mycelial cultures of Pleurotellus hypnophilus (Berk.) Sacc. in 1981 [15[15,16].,16].

In 1992, incarnatum gloeosteretriol in 1991 (16 ),[17]. also namedIn 1992, hirsutanol gloeosteretriol F was obtained(16), also from named the hirsutanolfluid fermentation F was obtained products from of thGloeostereume fluid fermentation incarnatum products[18]. From of Gloeostereum the culture incarnatum extract of the[18]. fungus From theLentinus culture crinitus extract, 1-desoxy-hypnophilin of the fungus Lentinus (17 crinitus), and, hypnophilin1-desoxy-hypnophilin (8) were isolated (17), and as hypnophilin the most active (8) werecompounds. isolated In as addition the most to theseactive ketones, compounds. their corresponding In addition to alcohols these ketones, 6,7-epoxy-4(15)-hirsutene-5-ol their corresponding alcohols(18) and 6,7-epoxy-4(15)-hirsutene-5-ol diol 4 (19) were obtained in 1994 (18 [)19 and]. diol 4 (19) were obtained in 1994 [19]. Chloriolin B B ( 20)) and C ( 21) were purifiedpurified from an unidentifiedunidentified fungus, which was separated fromfrom a marine sponge Jaspis aff. johnstoni [20].[20]. Hirsutanols A–C A–C ( (2222––2424)) and and ent-gloeosteretriol entgloeosteretriol (25) were obtained from from an an unidentified unidentified fungus, fungus, separated from an Indo-Pacific Indo-Pacific sponge Haliclona sp. in 1998, and study study showed that hirsutanol B was an epimer of hirsutanol A [5]. [5]. In In 1998, 1998, from from mycelial mycelial cultures cultures of of the the agaric MacrocystidiaMacrocystidia cucumis cucumis,, cucumis A–D ( 26–29) were were found found together together with with arthrosporone arthrosporone ( 9)[) [21].21].
