1,3-dimethyl-8-oxoisoguanine, a new purine from the New Zealand ascidian Pseudodistoma cereum

Nat Prod Res. 2004 Feb;18(1):39-42. doi: 10.1080/1057563031000122077.

Abstract

A new purine, 1,3-dimethyl-8-oxoisoguanine (2) was isolated from the New Zealand ascidian Pseudodistoma cereum. The structure of 2 was elucidated by the use of standard spectroscopic techniques, including natural abundance 1H-15N 2D NMR.
