Abstract
Three new sesquiterpene hydroquinones peyssonol A and B (5 and 6) and hyatellaquinone (7) have been isolated from the alga Peyssonnelia sp. and the sponge Hyatella intestinalis. The structure of the three compo unds was determined mainly by NMR measurements. Peyssonol A (5) is the first reported bromo sesquiterpene hydroquinone. Several of the new c ompounds were found in a preliminary test to inhibit the reverse trans criptase of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
