Abstract The basidiomycetes Gloeophyllum odoratum CBS 444.61 and Lentinellus cochleatus CBS 201.47 were cultivated on defined liquid culture media. Volatiles were obtained from 6‐weeks‐old cultures of G. odoratum and from 12‐weeks‐old cultures of L. cochleatus by circulation steam distillation and further analysed by GLC. Identification of individual constituents resulted from GC‐MS data and NMR spectroscopy. Predominant components of the distillate obtained from G. odoratum were drimenol, 3‐hydroxy‐3,7‐dimethyl‐oct‐6‐enoic acid methyl ester, and oct‐1‐en‐3‐ol. In the distillate of L. cochleatus we found mainly trans‐nerolidol, fokienol, and 6‐formyl‐2,2‐dimethyl chromene. Methyl 3‐hydroxy‐3,7‐dimethyloct‐6‐enoate and 6‐formyl‐2,2‐dimethyl chromene are described for the first time as natural products. Several minor constituents, mostly terpenes, could also be identified.
