| Abstract: | Compounds from the marine sponge Smenospongia aurea have been isolated and characterized as 5-bromo- and 5,6-dibromo-N,N-dimethyltryptamines (1 and 2), aureol (3), and two new aplysinopsin derivatives (6-bromoaplysinopsin and 6-bromo-4'-N-demethylaplysinopsin, 4 and 5, respectively). Morphologically similar species from the Caribbean have been surveyed and found to contain either mixtures of these metabolites or bromotyrosine-derived compounds. 1H NMR spectra of bromoindole-containing metabolites are discussed. |
