title: Dendridine A, a bis-indole alkaloid from a marine sponge Dictyodendrilla Species.
abstract: A unique C2-symmetrical 4,4'-bis(7-hydroxy)indole alkaloid, dendridine A (1), was isolated from an Okinawan marine sponge Dictyodendrilla sp., and the structure was elucidated by spectroscopic data. Dendridine A (1) exhibited antibacterial and antifungal activities.
