Abstract

A first phytochemical investigation of apolar natural products of the seagrass Zostera marina L. (Zosteraceae) yielded cymodienol, a cyclic diarylheptanoid so far only known from the seagrass Cymodocea nodosa (Ucria) Asch. (Cymodoceaceae) and a previously undescribed diaryheptanoid, isotedearene A, which is closely related to tedarene A, a natural product previously described from the neotropic sponge Tedania ignis (Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1864) (Tedaniidae). Structures were established by mass spectrometry and extensive 1D and 2D NMR experiments.
