Abstrakt: Spectroscopy-guided chemical analysis of a marine sponge from the genus Plakortis, collected in Tonga, yielded seven new metabolites of polyketide origin, lehualides E-K (5-11), four of which incorporate various sulfur functionalities. The structures of compounds 5-11 were elucidated by interpretation of spectroscopic data and spectral comparison with model compounds. The biological activities of compounds 6-9 were investigated against human promyeloid leukemic HL-60 cells and two yeast strains, wild-type and a drug-sensitive mutant.
