✦ Synopsis


In earlier papers1 we have described the isolation from a sea hare of two halogenated acetylenic Cl5 straight-chain ethers, one of which exhibits the interesting pharmacologic property of markedly potentiating the activity of pentobarbital in mice.2 In our continuing search3 for bioactive compounds from marine organisms we have isolated a dibrominated straight-chain Cl6 acetylenic acid, the first compound of this type to be reported, and we describe herein its structure elucidation.
