Abstract

Three new disulfated meroterpenoids, ilhabelanol (1), ilhabrene (2), and isoakaterpin (3), have been isolated from extracts of the Brazilian marine sponge Callyspongia sp. Isoakaterpin (3) inhibits Leishmania spp. adenosine phosphoribosyl transferase with an IC50 of 1.05 mu M. The structures of 1, 2, and 3 were elucidated by analysis of one- and two-dimensional NMR data. Ilhabelanol (1) and ilhabrene (2) both have unprecedented meroterpenoid carbon skeletons.
