Abstract
Three new sesquiterpenoid quinones, nakijiquinones G-I (1-3), containing a different amino group derived from amino acids have been isolated from Okinawan marine sponges of the family Spongiidae, and the structures and relative stereochemistry of 1-3 were elucidated on the basis of the spectral data. Nakijiquinones G-I (1-3) showed modest cytotoxicity and inhibitory activity against HER2 kinase, while nakijiquinone H (2) exhibited antimicrobial activity.
