More Information
Summary:This invention relates to novel compositions which are useful as antitumor, antiviral and antifungal compositions, a process of producing the compositions and a method for inhibiting tumors, viruses and fungi utilizing the composition. More particularly, the novel compositions are derived from marine sponge Theonella sp. and are of the general formula I, II or III wherein X -X are the same or different and are hydrogen, hydroxyl, lower acyl, or lower alkyl group; X -X are the same or different and are a hydrogen or lower alkyl group; R is a hydrogen, hydroxyl, lower alkyl, or lower alkoxy group; R -R are the same or different and are a hydrogen, hydroxyl, lower alkoxy or lower acyloxy group; Q -Q are the same or different and are a hydrogen, nitro, amino, lower acylamino, or lower alkyl group; and Z is a hydrogen, alkyl, hydroxyl, alkoxy, amino, mono- or dialkyl amino, or alpha - amino acid residue or compositions according to the formula I, II or III in which the double bonds are partially or fully reduced.
