Desmethylubiquinone Q 2 from the Far-Eastern ascidian Aplidium glabrum: structure and synthesis

[Display omitted] Two new diprenylquinones, glabruquinone A (desmethylubiquinone Q 2) having cancer preventive properties and its minor isomer Glabruquinone B were isolated from the ascidian Aplidium glabrum. Their structures have been elucidated by NMR and mass spectra and confirmed by synthesis.
