ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the chemical constituents from marine sponge Agelas sp.Methods Multi-chromatographic methods including silica gel column chromatography, Sephadex-LH20 gel permeation and HPLC were employed for the isolation and purification.The structures were identified on the basis of chemical evidence and NMR spectra data.Results Nine compounds were isolated and identified as: 4,5-dibromo-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid amide (1), 4,5-dibromo-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid (2), 4,5-dibromo-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (3), N-(4,5-dibromopyrrole-2-carbonyl) glycine methyl ester (4), 3-{[1-(4,5-dibromopyrrole-2-yl)-methanoyl]-amino}-propionic acid methyl ester (5), 3-{[1-(4,5-dibromopyrrole-2-yl)-methanoyl]-amino}-propionic acid ethyl ester (6),isoindole-1,3-dione (7), 2 (3H)-benzothiazolone (8), and manzacidin C (9).Conclusion Compounds 4～9 were isolated from the sponge of Agelas sp.for the first time,and compounds 4～6 were new natural products.
ABSTRACT
This work provides new information on agelasid sponges found on the continental shelf off northern Brazil. Agelas sceptrum (Lamarck, 1815) and Agelas wiedenmayeri Alcolado, 1984 have their first record for the Brazilian coast. Agelas dispar Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1864 and Agelas schmidti Wilson, 1902, previously recorded from Brazil, are cited for the first time off the mouth of the Amazon River.
Este trabalho fornece novas informações sobre esponjas agelasidas encontradas na costa norte da plataforma continental brasileira. Agelas sceptrum (Lamarck, 1815) e Agelas wiedenmayeri Alcolado, 1984 têm seu primeiro registro para a costa brasileira. Agelas dispar Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1864 e Agelas schmidti Wilson, 1902, registradas anteriormente na costa brasileira, são citadas pela primeira vez ao largo da desembocadura do Rio Amazonas.
