Biosynthesis of Fungal Metabolites. Terrein, a Metabolite of Aspergillus terreus Thom

Terrein, a metabolite of Aspergillus terreus Thom, is biosynthesised from 3,4-dihydro-6,8-dihydroxy-3-methylisocoumarin by contraction of an aryl ring.The direction of the ring contraction has been investigated using acetate as precursor.
