Abstract

A new diterpenoid endoperoxide showing cytotoxicity named amitorin (1) was isolated from an extract of a sponge Halichondria sp. Its structure along with relative stereochemistry was elucidated with spectral analysis and calculation studies. The structure and cytotoxicity (IC50 2.3 µM against NBT-II cells) of the molecule are described herein.
