YB‐141, an endophytic fungus isolated from <jats:italic>Azadirachta indica</jats:italic> <jats:sc>A. Juss</jats:sc>. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis. The antifungal activities of <jats:bold>1</jats:bold>–<jats:bold>5</jats:bold> towards seven phytopathogenic fungi were tested. Most of the compounds exhibited no or only weak antifungal activities.
