A new polyunsaturated brominated fatty acid from a Haliclona sponge

Abstract

A new polyunsaturated brominated fatty acid possessing acetylenic bonds 1 was isolated from the Indonesian sponge Haliclona sp. The structure of compound 1 was elucidated by analyzing its spectral data. It showed moderate cytotoxicity against cultured cells. © 2009 by the authors; licensee Molecular Diversity Preservation International.
