Two New Unprecedented Acetonyl-Bearing Sesquiterpenes from the Hainan Sponge Dysidea fragilis

摘要

Two new acetonyl-bearing sesquiterpenes. dysifragilisins A and B (1 and 2, resp.), have been isolated from the Hainan marine sponge Dysidea fragilis. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analyses and by comparison of their NMR data with those of structurally related compounds. A plausible biogenetic pathway is proposed for the origin of compounds 1 and 2.
