Title: Beta-carboline alkaloids derived from the ascidian Synoicum sp.

Authors: Won TH, Jeon JE, Lee SH, Rho BJ, Oh KB, Shin J.

Abstract: Six β-carboline alkaloids (1-6) of the eudistomin Y class were isolated from the Korean ascidian Synoicum sp. These compounds were chemically converted to a known compound, eudistomin Y(1) (7) and six new derivatives, designated eudistomins Y(8)-Y(13) (8-13). Several of these natural and synthetic compounds exhibited moderate to significant antimicrobial activity, weak cytotoxic activity, and inhibitory activities toward sortase A, isocitrate lyase, and Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase. Structure-activity relationships were also deduced.
