Abstract
Aplysillin A [1], an unusual disulfate ester of a 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-but adiene, was isolated from a deep water specimen of a sponge of the gen us Aplysina. Its structure was determined through spectroscopic method s. The compound weakly inhibited binding to the thrombin receptor with an IC50 value of 20 mu M.
