Cycloanthranilylproline-Derived Constituents from a Myxomycete Fuligo candida

Cycloanthranilylproline (1) and its derivatives (2—4) were isolated from field-collected fruit-bodies of a myxomycete Fuligo candida and their structures were elucidated by spectral data. Compound 4, which was contained in the water-soluble fraction of the extract of this myxomycete, was unstable and quite susceptible to decarboxylation to yield compound 2, which was a major constituent of the EtOAc-soluble fraction of this extract.
