title: Chemical investigation of Mycale mytilorum and a study on toxicity and antidiabetic activity of 5-octadecylpyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde.
abstract: Chemical investigation of Mycale mytilorum afforded four new and two known compounds, of which 5-octadecylpyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde (1) and (6'Z)-5-(6'-heneicosenyl) pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde (2, congeners of alkylpyrrole carboxadehyde), (2S,3R,4E)-1,3-dihydroxy-2-[(heneicosanoyl) amino]-4-heneicosene (5, sphingolipid) and 2-methyl-3-(4,5,7-trihydroxy-8-hydroxy-methyltetrahydro-6H-4-py ranyl)-2-propenoic acid (6, tetrahydropyran derivative) are new, and batylalcohol (3) and p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (4) are known. The toxicity and antidiabetic activity of 5-octadecylpyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde were evaluated for the first time. Also, compounds 1, 2, 5 and 6 were studied for the antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral activity.
