Gambierol is a polycyclic ether toxin, isolated as a toxic constituent from the marine dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus toxicus. We describe here the synthesis and biological evaluation of structural analogues of gambierol. The present preliminary structure-activity relationship studies clearly indicate that the H ring functionality and the unsaturated side chain of gambierol are crucial for its potent toxicity.
冈比毒素是一种多环醚毒素，从海洋甲藻剧毒冈比甲藻中分离出来作为一种有毒成分。我们在此描述冈比毒素结构类似物的合成及生物学评价。目前初步的构效关系研究清楚地表明，冈比毒素的H环官能团和不饱和侧链对其强毒性至关重要。
