Abstract
Four of the metabolites of Penicillium viridicatum 66-68-2 grown on rice cultures were isolated and identified as xanthomegnin, viomellein, rubrosulphin, and viopurpurin. Melting points, elemental analysis, and infrared, ultraviolet, and field desorption and electron impact mass spectra of the isolated compounds were consistent with values reported in the literature for these compounds. In addition, diacetate and triacetate derivatives were prepared, and the chemical and physical analyses of the derivatives were also consistent with literature data. Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy and thin-layer chromatography were also used for the additional identification of selected compounds.
