Spongenolactones A–C, Bioactive 5,5,6,6,5-Pentacyclic Spongian Diterpenes from the Red Sea Sponge Spongia sp.

Three new 5,5,6,6,5-pentacyclic spongian diterpenes, spongenolactones A–C (1–3), were isolated from a Red Sea sponge Spongia sp. The structures of the new metabolites were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis and the absolute configurations of 1–3 were determined on the basis of comparison...

Sumario:Three new 5,5,6,6,5-pentacyclic spongian diterpenes, spongenolactones A–C (1–3), were isolated from a Red Sea sponge Spongia sp. The structures of the new metabolites were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis and the absolute configurations of 1–3 were determined on the basis of comparison of the experimental circular dichroism (CD) and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Compounds 1–3 are the first 5,5,6,6,5-pentacyclic spongian diterpenes bearing an β-hydroxy group at C-1. These metabolites were assayed for their cytotoxic, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory activities. All three compounds were found to exert inhibitory activity against superoxide anion generation in fMLF/CB-stimulated human neutrophils. Furthermore, 1 showed a higher activity against the growth of Staphylococcus aureus in comparison to 2.
