✦ Synopsis


The ethanolic extract of the sponge Jaspis sp. collected in Vanuatu showed cytotoxicity against KB tumour cells (IC 95 =10 mg/ml). A bioassay-guided fractionation led to the isolation of two new cytotoxic sphingosine derivatives, jaspine A and jaspine B. Structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, and absolute configuration by chemical derivatisation. The cytotoxicity of jaspine B hydrochloride was evaluated against the A549 lung tumour cell line (IC 50 =3.4×10 -7 M).

Following the characterization of callipeltoside A (1), the first member of a novel class of marine glycoside macrolides, two more bioactive constituents, callipeltoside B (2) and C(3), were isolated from Callipelta sp. in very low amounts. The structures, assigned on the basis of spectral analysis,
