Advanced precursors in mariine biosynthetic study.Part 2: The biosynthesis of isocyanides and isothiocyanates in the tropical marine sponge Axinyssa n.sp.

摘要

The biosynthetic origins of the isocyanide and isothiocyanate groups in 9-isocyanop upukeanane (2) and 9-isothiocyanato-pupukeanane (3) are investigated by incorporation of [~(14)C]-labelled advanced presursors into the sponge Axinyssa n.sp.
