Metachromins R--T, new sesquiterpenoids from marine sponge Spongia sp.
Three new sesquiterpenoids, metachromins R--T (1--3), have been isolated from an Okinawan marine sponge Spongia sp. The structures and stereochemistry of 1--3 were elucidated on the basis of the spectroscopic data. Metachromins S (2) and T (3) showed modest cytotoxicity.
