Abstract

The precursor ion scanning-supercritical fluid chromatography (PI-SFC) method was applied to explore new methionine sulfoxide-containing cycloheptapeptides, axinellasins A-D (1-4), from the marine sponge Axinella sp. Their structures, including absolute configurations, were elucidated by detailed spectroscopic analyses and X-ray crystallography. The total synthesis of 4 was completed via an Fmoc solid/solution-phase synthesis. Compounds 1-4 exhibited immunosuppressive effects via inhibition of T and B cell proliferation, and 1 and 4 showed better inhibitory activities than their corresponding diastereomers.
