The molecule is a piperazinone that is piperazine-2,5-dione substituted by a hydroxymethyl group at position 3 and a benzyl group at position 6 which in turn is substituted by a prenyloxy group at position 4. It has been isolated from Penicillium chrysogenum. It has a role as a Penicillium metabolite. It is a piperazinone, an aromatic ether, a primary alcohol and a cyclic ketone.
