A new decalin derivative from red yeast rice

J Asian Nat Prod Res. 2009 Sep;11(9):792-5. doi: 10.1080/10286020903164269.

Abstract

A new decalin derivative, monascusic acid A (1), together with a new natural product (2), was isolated from the ethanol extract of red yeast rice. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods.
