Ecteinascidins 736 and 722: New antitumor alkaloids from the Caribbean tunicate Ecteinascidia turbinata. Four known ecteiascidins (Et's) 743, 729, 745 and 759B, and triptamine hydrochloride, and two new compounds Et's 736 and 722 were isolated from the extract of Caribbean tunicate E. turbinata. Structures of three ecteinascidins, Et's 736, 722 and 759B, were determined spectroscopically. In vitro antimicrobial activity, cytotoxicity, and immunosuppressive activity for all of the above compounds and antitumor activities for Et's 722 and 729 are reported. Both Et's 722 and 729 showed significant activity against P388, B16 and Lewis lung carcinoma models in mice.","Part III. A new polyether acid from a cold water marine sponge, a Phakellia species. A new polyether acid 14,15-dihydrodinophysistoxin-1 was isolated from a cold water marine sponge Phakellia sp. along with the related known compounds okadaic acid and dinophysistoxin-1.
