Triterpene-farnesyl hydroquinone conjugates from Ganoderma sinense

J Nat Prod. 2009 May 22;72(5):958-61. doi: 10.1021/np800687t.

Abstract

Three new lanostane-type triterpenoids having farnesyl hydroquinone moieties, named ganosinensins A-C (1-3), were isolated from the fruiting body of Ganoderma sinense, together with three known lanostane triterpenes, ganodermanontriol, ganoderiol A, and ganoderiol D. The structures of compounds 1-3 were determined by spectroscopic data interpretation.
