From the 48 hour-cultured mycelial broth of Phellinus linteus, six compounds were isolated by means of ethyl acetate extraction, silica gel column chromatography and preparative thin layer chromatography, consecutively. Compound 1 was identified as a succinic acid by the comparison of its spectral data with authentic sample. Compounds 2 and 3 were identified as p-hydroxyphenyl acetic acid methyl ester and p-hydroxybenzaldehyde by spectroscopic studies, respectively. NMR and MS studies of compound 6 revealed that it was 2,5-dihydroxymethyl furan. Compound 4, which showed similar NMR absorptions and MS fragmentation pattern with those of compound 6 was identified as 2-hydroxymethyl-5-methoxymethylfuran. These structures were verified by the spectral data of the acetate derivatives of the compounds. Compound 5 was supposed to be a N-acetyltyramine from its $^1H-NMR$ and EI-MS data, and its structure was confirmed by a synthesis starting from tyramine.
