Four new tris-bromoindole cyclic guanidine alkaloids, araiosamines A-D, were isolated from the methanol extract of a marine sponge, Clathria (Thalysias) araiosa, collected from Vanuatu. Their carbon skeletons delineate a new class of indole alkaloids apparently derived from a linear polymerization process involving a carbon-carbon bond formation. Comparison of the structures including the relative configurations suggests a common intermediate containing a dihydroaminopyrimidine moiety capable of undergoing various modalities of conjugate addition to yield unprecedented ring systems.
从瓦努阿图采集的海绵 Clathria (Thalysias) araiosa 的甲醇提取物中分离得到四个新的三溴吲哚环胍生物碱:araiosamines A-D。它们的碳骨架描绘了一类新的吲哚生物碱,显然源自涉及碳-碳键形成的线性聚合过程。结构比较包括相对构型表明存在一个共同的中间体,其中含有二氢氨基嘧啶部分,能够经历各种共轭加成方式,从而产生前所未有的环系统。
