Halogenated helianane derivatives from the sponge Spirastrella hartmani

J Nat Prod. 2005 Oct;68(10):1554-5. doi: 10.1021/np050247f.

Abstract

Two new halogenated derivatives (1 and 2) of helianane (3) were isolated from the 2-propanol extract of the sponge Spirastrella hartmani. The structures of the new derivatives were determined on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analysis, including (+)-HREIMS and 1D and 2D NMR. Compound 1 showed in vitro cytotoxicity against the human tumor cell lines A549, HT29, and MDA-MB-231.
