Abstract
A novel, polyoxygenated, pyranose ring containing 16-membered macrolide peloruside A (1) exhibiting cytotoxic activity in the nanomolar range was isolated from the New Zealand marine sponge Mycale sp. The structure of 1 and relative stereochemistry of the 10 stereogenic centers were determined on a 3 mg sample using a variety of spectroscopic methods. Compound 1 was isolated along with the previously reported cytotoxins mycalamide A (2) and pateamine (3) from a single specimen of this sponge.
