An Australian marine sponge, Spongia hispida, has been found to contain a new sesquiterpene/quinone identified by detailed spectroscopic analysis and chemical derivatization as the antibiotic 5-epi-isospongiaquinone [3]. The complete stereostructure for 3 was determined by detailed spectroscopic analysis and chemical correlation with the known marine natural product isospongiaquinone [2]. Co-occurring with 3 was an ethylated analogue, 5-epi-homoisospongiaquinone [4], which was speculated to be an artifact of the isolation process. A revised structure 15 for the known marine metabolite, smenorthoquinone [13], is also presented.
一种澳大利亚海洋海绵,即刺海绵(Spongia hispida),已被发现含有一种新的倍半萜/醌,通过详细的光谱分析和化学衍生化鉴定为抗生素5-表异海绵醌[3]。通过详细的光谱分析以及与已知海洋天然产物异海绵醌[2]的化学关联,确定了化合物3的完整立体结构。与化合物3同时存在的是一种乙基化类似物,5-表高异海绵醌[4],推测它是分离过程中的一种人工产物。还给出了已知海洋代谢产物斯门正醌[13]的修订结构15。
