Abstract

In this work we explored a chemical study of the lipid fraction of the fungus Hydnellum ferrugineum through spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques, in which the following were identified: natural n-alkanes (C10â��C30); steroids with an ergosterol skeleton (ergosta-7-en-3-one 1, ergosta-7,22-dien-3-one 2, ergosta-7-en-3-�²-ol 3 and ergosta-7, 22-dien-3-�²-ol 5); two pentacyclic triterpenes (friedeline 7 and taraxerol 8); saturated fatty acids (C11, C12, C13, C14, C15, C16, C17, and C18); ethyl oleate; and ethyl linoleate. This chemical-specific information is expected to provide new data for the chemical-taxonomic classification of this fungus.
