Abstract
Two new polypropionates, named exiguapyrone (2) and exiguaone (3) along with the known haminol-1 (4) and -2 (5), have been isolated from the lipidic extract of the Mediterranean cephalaspidean mollusc Haminoea exigua. The regular propionate skeletons, structurally related to other polypropionates from the congener Haminoea fusari, have been elucidated by means of NMR techniques as natural (2 and 3) and a-/c-pyrone methyl derivatives (2a and 2b). This is a further report showing the co-occurrence of alkyl-pyridines and polypropionates in Haminoea molluscs strengthening the role of polypropionates as chem- ical markers among cephalaspideans.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
