✦ Synopsis

Abslrtrct: Two new water soluble 320 nm W-absorbing compounds, sulfate esters of two imino mycosporines,were isolated tlom methanolextracts of a reef-buildingcorat and purified by HPLC. Structural dUCkhitiOtI yielded the moiecu]arfornndse C12HIJ4@SS(5) and CIIHI,N,O$ (6). These havebeengiventhe trivial namesPalythine-Thr-sulfate and Palythine-Ser-sulfate respectively.
