Note(s): Four new cyclic peroxides (5–8) along with known chondrillin (4) have been isolated as antitumor constituents of the sponge Plakortis lita. These are methyl-(3S*, 6S*)-3, 6-epidioxy- 6-methoxyoctadec-4-enoate (5), methyl( 3S*, 6S*, 16E)-3, 6-epidoxy- 6-methoxyoctadeca-4,16-dienoate (6), methyl( 3S*, 6S*, 14E, 16E)- 3, 6-epidioxy-6-methoxyoctadeca-4, 14, 16-trienoate (7), and methyl-( 3S*, 6S*, 16E, 18E)-3, 6-epidioxy-6-methoxyeicosa-4 ,16 ,18- trinoate (8). All of them are epimeric to 4 and exhibit higher antitumor potency than 4.
