Mass-guided fractionation of the MeOH extract from a specimen of the Australian marine sponge Hyrtios sp. resulted in the isolation of two new tryptophan alkaloids, 6-oxofascaplysin (2), and secofascaplysic acid (3), in addition to the known metabolites fascaplysin (1) and reticulatate (4). The structures of all molecules were determined following NMR and MS data analysis. Structural ambiguities in 2 were addressed through comparison of experimental and DFT-generated theoretical NMR spectral values. Compounds 1-4 were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against a prostate cancer cell line (LNCaP) and were shown to display IC50 values ranging from 0.54 to 44.9 μM.
对澳大利亚海洋海绵Hyrtios sp.的一个样本的甲醇提取物进行质谱引导分馏，除了已知代谢产物 fascaplysin（1）和 reticulatate（4）外，还分离出两种新的色氨酸生物碱，6-氧代 fascaplysin（2）和 secofascaplysic 酸（3）。通过核磁共振（NMR）和质谱（MS）数据分析确定了所有分子的结构。通过比较实验和密度泛函理论（DFT）生成的理论核磁共振光谱值，解决了2的结构模糊性问题。评估了化合物1-4对前列腺癌细胞系（LNCaP）的细胞毒性，结果显示其半数抑制浓度（IC50）值在0.54至44.9 μM之间。
