β¦ Synopsis
Kalihinene and isokalihinol B. cytotoxic diterpene isonitriles have been isolated from the marine sponge Acanthclla klethra. Structures of these compounds were elucidated by interpretation of NMR spectra as well as by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Marine sponges of the order Halichondrida often contain sesquiterpene isonitriles and diterpene isonitriles which show a broad spectrum of biological activities, including antimicrobial and ichthyotoxic properties. 2 In our screening for antifungal and cytotoxic metabolites in Japanese marine invertebrates, the marine sponge Acanthella klethra

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 m
