Popis: | Pigments which accumulated in surface cultures of Paxillus atrotomentosus (Batsch) Fr. were studied. The nutrient broth and mycelium of 2-month-old cultures were blended, and the pigments were partitioned into ether. Two pigments were isolated by dry-column chromatogrphy using a silica gel adsorbent and ether saturated with concentrated HCl as a chromatographic solvent. The major pigment was identified as xerocomic acid, and the minor pigment was shown to be atromentic acid. Identification of these acids was based on UV and IR spectra, mass spectral fragmentation patterns, high-resolution mass spectroscopy, and properties of their acetyl derivatives. Examination of fresh carpophores of P. atrotomentosus failed to demonstrate detectable amounts of either of these tetronic acids. These pigments have been reported to occur in fresh carpophores of some species in the Boletaceae and Gomphidiaceae, but this is the first reported presence of any diphenyl-substituted tetronic acid in the saprophytic culture of a fungus. |
