Abstract

Extraction of the sponge Aplysilla sulphurea (Order, Dendroceratida) yielded two crystalline substances, aplysulphurin, C22H28O5, and aplysulphuride, C22H32O5. Chemical and spectroscopic evidence suggested that aplysulphurin, the title compound, had the structure (2). This was confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray determination.
