Abstract
Three potent new chitinase inhibitors, styloguanidines 1, 2 and 3, wer e isolated from the sponge. Stylotella aurantium collected from the Ya p sea. Their structures were determined by spectral means. These were a new type of inhibitor from natural sources and were proved to inhibi t the moulting of cyprid larvae or barnacles.
