New cytotoxic cyclic peroxide acids from sp. marine sponge.

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the extract of Jamaican marine sponge sp. followed by preparative TLC and HPLC yielded several known methyl ester cyclic peroxides (), known plakortides (), known bicyclic lactone () and new cyclic peroxide acids (). The chemical structures were elucidated by extensive interpretation of their spectroscopic data.
