Abstract
Bioassay-guided isolation procedures using human tumor cell lines led to isolation of dibromophakellstatin (4) from the Republic of Seychelles sponge Phakellia mauritiana. The isolation, X-ray crystal structure elucidation, absolute stereochemistry, and antineoplastic activity have been summarized. P. mauritiana was also found to contain dibromophakellin (1), debromohymenialesine (2), thymidine, deoxyuridine, and thymine.
