Neosiphoniamolide A, a novel cyclodepsipeptide, with antifungal activity from the marine sponge Neosiphonia superstes

J Nat Prod. 1995 Jan;58(1):121-3. doi: 10.1021/np50115a017.

Abstract

A novel cyclodepsipeptide, neosiphoniamolide A [1], has been isolated from the sponge Neosiphonia superstes. The structure of 1, which contains a 12-carbon hydroxy acid, glycine, valine, and a halogenated tyrosine residue in an 18-membered ring, is related to jaspamide and the geodiamolides, previously isolated from sponges. The structure was solved by spectroscopic analysis.
