Abstract

The sponge Chelonaplysilla violacea, collected from New Zealand coastal waters, contains as major constituents the diterpenoids aplyviolene (1a), norrisolide (2), dendrillolide A (3) aplyroseol-7 (4), spongian-16-one (5), chelonaplysin C (6), and a series of new compounds cheloviolene A-F and cheloviolin. Structures were assigned to cheloviolene A (7), [3aR-[3aα,4α(1R*,3aR*,8aS*),5β,6aα]]-5-hydroxy-4(1,4,4-trimethyl-8-methylenedecahydroazulen-1-yl) tetrahydrofuro [2,3- b] furan-2(3H)-one, cheloviolene B (8), [3aR-[3aα,4a(1R*,3aR*, 8aS*),5α,6aα]]-5-hydroxy-4-(1,4,4-trimethyl-8-methylenedecahydroazulen-1-yl) tetrahydrofuro [2,3-b]furan-2(3H)-one, cheloviolene C (9), [1'ξ(1R*,3aS*,7aS*),4ξ]-4-[1′-( acetyloxymethyl )-2′-(4,4,7a-trimethyloctahydro-1H-inden-1-yl)prop-2′-enyl] dihydrofuran -2(3H)-one, cheloviolene D (10), methyl [3α,4α(1R*,3aR*,8aS*)]-5-oxo-4-(1,4,4-trimethyl-8-methylenedecahydroazulen-1-yl)tetrahydrofuran-3-acetate, cheloviolene E (11), methyl [3α,4α-(1R*,3aS*,7aS*)]-5-oxo-4-[1′-(4,4,7a-trimethyloctahydro-1H-inden-1-yl) ethenyl ]tetrahydrofuran-3-acetate, and cheloviolene F (12), [4ξ,5ξ(1R*,3R*,8aS*)]-4-( acetyloxymethyl )-5-(1,4,4-trimethyl-8-methylenedecahydroazulen-1-yl) tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one, by using spectroscopic methods; the structure (13) was deduced for cheloviolin, [1S-[1α,5α,6α,8R*(1aS*,3aS*,7aS*,7b-R*)]]-6-acetyloxy-8-(4,4,7a-trimethyldecahydrocylopropa[a] naphthalen-la-yl )-2,7-dioxabicyclo- [3.2.1]octan-3-one.
