A new cochlioquinone derivative, cochlioquinone F ( 1 ), as well as three known compounds, anhydrocochlioquinone A ( 2 ), isocochlioquinone A ( 3 ), and isocochlioquinone C ( 4 ), were isolated from the PDB (potato dextrose broth) culture of the phytopathogenic fungus Bipolaris luttrellii. The structure of 1 was elucidated on the basis of NMR techniques. The apoptosis‐inducing effects of compounds 1 – 4 were evaluated against HCT116 cancer cells. Compound  2 exhibited the strongest activity in inducing apoptosis on HCT116 cells within the range of 10–30 μ M . In addition, the caspase activation, the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria, and the downregulation of Bcl‐2 protein in HCT116 cells treated with compound  2 were detected.
