Two new merohexaprenoids, halicloic acids A (1) and B (2), have been isolated from the marine sponge Haliclona (Halichoclona) sp. collected in the Philippines. The glycolic acids 1 and 2 slowly decomposed during acquisition of NMR data to aldehydes 3 and 4, respectively, via an oxidative decarboxylation. Halicloic acid B (2) has the new rearranged "haliclane" meroterpenoid carbon skeleton. The halicloic acids 1 and 2 are indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase inhibitors that are significantly more active than the decomposition products 3 and 4.
两种新的单萜类化合物,halicloic 酸 A(1)和 B(2),已从菲律宾采集的海洋海绵 Haliclona(Halichoclona)sp 中分离出来。在获取 NMR 数据的过程中,2-羟基乙酸 1 和 2 分别缓慢分解为相应的醛 3 和 4,这是通过氧化脱羧作用实现的。Halicloic 酸 B(2)具有新的重排的“haliclane”单萜类化合物碳骨架。halicloic 酸 1 和 2 是吲哚胺 2,3-双加氧酶抑制剂,其活性明显高于分解产物 3 和 4。
