Spectroscopy-guided chemical analysis of a marine sponge from the genus Plakortis, collected in Tonga, yielded seven new metabolites of polyketide origin, lehualides E-K (5-11), four of which incorporate various sulfur functionalities. The structures of compounds 5-11 were elucidated by interpretation of spectroscopic data and spectral comparison with model compounds. The biological activities of compounds 6-9 were investigated against human promyeloid leukemic HL-60 cells and two yeast strains, wild-type and a drug-sensitive mutant.
对在汤加采集的属于 Plakortis 属的一种海绵进行光谱指导下的化学分析,得到了七个新的聚酮类化合物代谢物 lehualides E-K(5-11),其中有四个化合物含有不同的硫官能团。通过对光谱数据的解释和与模型化合物的光谱比较,确定了化合物 5-11 的结构。对化合物 6-9 的生物活性进行了研究,测试了它们对人类早幼粒细胞白血病 HL-60 细胞和两种酵母菌株(野生型和一种药物敏感突变株)的抑制作用。
