RESUMO
Four new halogenated monoterpene aldehydes (1-4) have been isolated from the South African marine red alga Plocamium corallorhiza, along with the known compounds 4,6-dibromo-1,1-dichloro-3,7-dimethyl-2E,7-octadiene (5) and 1,4,8-tribromo-3,7-dichloro-3,7-dimethyl-1E,5E-octadiene (10). The structures of the new compounds were determined by interpretation of their spectroscopic data and synthesis and mass spectrometric analysis of their pentafluorobenzyloxime (PFBO) derivatives.

Three new polyhalogenated monoterpenes, plocoralides A-C (1-3) along with three known compounds (4-6) have been isolated from the organic extract of the red alga P. corallorhiza. Structures of the new compounds were characterized as 4,8-dibromo-1,1-dichloro-3,7-dimethyl-2E,6E-octadiene (1), 4,6-dibromo-1,1-dichloro-3,7-dimethyl-2E,7-octadiene (2) and 4,8-dibromo-1,1,7-trichloro-3,7-dimethyl-2E,5Z-octadiene (3) on the basis of one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopic data and MS analyses. Compounds 2-6 show moderate cytotoxicity toward esophageal cancer cells.
