(-)-Agelasidine C and (-)-Agelasidine D, Two New Hypotaurocyamine Diterpenoids from the Caribbean Sea Songe Agelas clathrodes

Abstract

Two new diterpene derivatives of hypotaurocyamine, (-)-agelasidine C [3] and (-)-agelasidine D [5], have been isolated from the Caribbean sea sponge Agelas clathrodes. The structures of 3 and 5 have been established by interpretation and comparison of their spectral data to those of the known antipode (+)-agelasidine C [1].
