The cytotoxicity of a crude extract from Dactylospongia elegans stimulated a search for the active constituents. The structures and absolute stereochemistry are elucidated for four new. 9, 11, 18, 19. and thirteen previously described compounds, 3, 4, 6a. 7, 8, 10, 12 - 17, 21. These compounds were isolated from collections of D. elegans obtained from three different Indo-Pacific regions. Fiji. Papua New Guinea, and Thailand. This species appears to elaborate a broader range of the mixed biogenesis sesquiterpene-hydroquinone (-quinone) metabolites in comparison to those of other sponges or seaweeds. Three compounds, 4, 9, and 13. were potent (IC50's were less than 1-mu-g/mL). The quinone ring appears to be essential for this in vitro activity.
