Caribbean sponge Spirastrella coccinea.[1] Unlike many other antimitotic macrolides of marine origin, 1 does not affect tubulin polymerization in vitro but was shown to be a very potent (IC50= 1 nm) and surprisingly selective inhibitor of protein phosphatase PP2A, with the ability to drive cells directly from the S phase into mitosis before causing cellcycle arrest.[1, 2] In view of the central regulatory role of PP2A, spirastrellolide A represents a potential lead for the development of novel therapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer as well as various neurological and metabolic disorders.[3]The initial assignment [1] of this intriguing natural product, based on extensive NMR studies of its methyl ester derivative 1a (R= Me), was corrected shortly after publication.[2] Even the revised structure 1 remains tentative; although it certainly depicts the correct constitution of spirastrellolide A and the proper relative stereochemistry within the individual domains embedded into the complex macrocylic frame, it must be emphasized that the stereochemical relationships between the segments color-coded in Scheme2 have yet to be determined. Moreover, the absolute stereochemistry of 1 is still unknown.[2]
