Abstract

The petroleum ether extract of Fomes pinicola, upon chromatography on an alumina column, yielded ergosterol and a crystalline compound which was identified as eburicoic acid by means of IR and NMR spectroscopy. Ultraviolet spectrum analysis indicated that eburicoic acid was contaminated with trace impurities of dehydroeburicoic acid.
