Three new bis-indole alkaloids, topsentin-A (1), -B1 (2), and -B2 (3) have been isolated from the Mediterranean sponge Topsentiagenitrix and their structure determined by spectroscopic methods. These compounds are weakly toxic for fish and for dissociated cells of the freshwater sponge Ephydatiafluviatilis and thus might be partially responsible for the chemical defense of the sponge.

Four sesterterpenes, erectusolides B, C, D, and seco-manoalide-25-methyl ether, two 2-furanone derivatives, erectusfuranones A and B, together with thirteen known sesterterpenes, (6Z)-neomanoalide-24-acetate, two diastereomers of 24-O-methylmanoalide, luffariolide B, manoalide, (6E)- and (6Z)-neomanoalide, seco-manoalide, scalarafuran, 12-acetylscalarolide, 12-epi-O-deacetyl-19-deoxyscalarin, 12-epi-scalarin, and 12-O-deacetyl-12-epi-scalarin, three indole alkaloids, 5-hydroxy-1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde, hyrtiosine A, and variabine B, and one norterpene, cavernosine were isolated from the marine sponge Hyrtios erectus. Their structures were determined by means of spectroscopic methods and the absolute configurations of the asymmetric centers were determined using the modified Mosher’s method. The cytotoxic activities for the isolated compounds have been reported.

(-)-Agelasidine A was identified from the methanol extract of the marine sponge Agelas clathrodes for the first time together with zooanemonin, 1-carboxymethylnicotinic acid, hymenidin, mukanadins A and C, monobromodispacamide, agelasidine D, 2-amide-4-bromopyrrole, O-methyltryptophan and an agelasines mixture. The structures were characterized by spectroscopic methods. (-)-Agelasidine A was tested for antibacterial and antifungal activities and shown to act as a bacteriostatic agent as it inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and partially the growth of other bacteria.

From the deep violet, encrusting marine sponge Chelonaplysilla violacea, two rearranged spongian diterpenes, aplyviolene, (1R*,1′S*,3?aR*,5R*,6R*,8R*,8′aS*)-3-oxo-8-(1′,4′,4′-trimethyl-8′-methylenedecahydroazulen-1′-yl)-2,7-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-yl acetate (1), the acetoxy derivative, aplyviolacene (2), (5R*,8S*,9S*,10R*,13S*,14R* ,15S*,16R*)-spongian-15,16-diyl diacetate (3) and (5R*,8S*,9S*,10R*,13S*,14R*)-spongian-16-one (4) were isolated. The structures were determined by spectroscopic methods, and the structure of aplyviolene was confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray determination. The crystal structure was refined to a residual of 0.036 for 1125 independent observed reflections. The crystals were orthorhombic, space group P212121 with a 8.098(1), b 11.628(1), c 21.774(3)Ǻ.

A new natural indole, vibrindole B (1), together with known analogs, vibrindole A (2), trisindoline (3), norharmane (4), and 3-(hydroxyacetyl)indole (5), produced by the bacterium Pseudovibrio denitrificans P81, were isolated from a sponge, Aaptos species. The structures of indoles 1 to 5 were established by spectroscopic methods. The proposed biosynthetic pathway of 1 to 5 is also discussed, starting from tryptophan. Moreover, indoles 1 to 3 were found to exhibit cytotoxicity toward T24 tumor cells with IC50 values of 1.71 ± 0.11, 4.53 ± 0.14, and 2.26 ± 0.26 µM, respectively.

Two new compounds, 3-amino-7,8-dihydroimidazo-[1,5-c]-pyrimidin-5(6H)-one (1) and ethyl 3-(2-amino-1H-imidazol-4-yl)propylcarbamate (2), along with the previously known 7,8-dihydroimidazo-[1,5-c]-pyrimidin-5(6H)-one (3), aeroplysinin-1 (4), dibromoverongiaquinol (5), bisoxazolidinone derivative (6), aerophobins-1 (7) and −2 (8), purealidins J (9) and L, have been isolated from Aplysina sp. from the South China Sea. The structures were elucidated on the basis of 1H, 13C NMR, MS and IR analyses. The histamine-derived alkaloids 1-3 may be unknown bioconversion products of purealidin J (9), aerophobin-2 (8) and aerophobin-1 (7), respectively, when 7-9 are cleaved at C-8–C-9 in reactions of activated chemical defense in Aplysina sponge.

Bioassay and t.l.c. guided separation of extracts from the New Zealand marine sponge Dysidea sp. has led to the isolation of avarol (1), six other known compounds (2)–(4) and (6)–(8), and seven new compounds (9)–(15). All but one of these, compound (8), are related to avarol. The structures of all the compounds have been established by spectroscopic methods.
