The polyacetylenic metabolites of Basidiomycete B-841 comprise not only the free hydroxy-acids and lactones (1)-(IV), but also a glycoside fraction of which the main component is the β-D-xylopyranoside of nemotinic acid. Both this xyloside and its hydrogenation product are hydrolysed by alkali, as well as by acid; the course of these reactions is elucidated and a probable configuration assigned to C(4) of nemotinic acid.
