title: Bis(sulfato)-cyclosiphonodictyol A, a new disulfated sesquiterpene-hydroquinone from a deep water collection of the Marine sponge Siphonodictyon coralliphagum.
abstract: A new compound, bis(sulfato)-cyclosiphonodictyol A [1], which inhibits the binding of [3H]-LTB4 to intact human neutrophils with an IC50 value of 44 microM, was isolated from the sponge Siphonodictyon coralliphagum. The sponge was collected using the Johnson-Sea-Link manned submersible at a depth of 195 feet in the Bahamas. The compound was isolated via reversed-phase chromatography and its structure determined spectroscopically. To the best of our knowledge, 1 is the first marine-derived compound with two aromatic sulfate ester functionalities, and is also the first in the siphonodictyal series to contain an oxepane functionality.
