A new sesquiterpenoid quinone and other related compounds from the Okinawan marine sponge Dactylospongia elegans

J Nat Prod. 2003 Jan;66(1):46-50. doi: 10.1021/np0203436.

Abstract

The new sesquiterpenoid quinone, neodactyloquinone (1), and dactylolactones A-D (2-5) were isolated from the Okinawan sponge Dactylospongia elegans. The structures of these compounds were determined by spectroscopic analysis.
