The antifungal activity of 10 (ten) depsidones and 5 (five) depsides was evaluated, as well as the antibacterial of these compounds and 3 (three) aditional depsides and the 1 (one) diarylether; all of them were isolated from lichens growing in Chile. Some of these secondary metabolites exhibited interesting results.
