CASTELLANOS, Leonardo e DUQUE, Carmenza. CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND ANTIFOULING ACTIVITY OF THE LIPID FRACTION OF THE CARIBBEAN MARINE SPONGE Cliona tenuis (Clionidae). Rev.Colomb.Quim. [online]. 2008, vol.37, n.3, pp.259-274. ISSN 0120-2804.
The lipid fraction obtained from the marine sponge Cliona tenuis, collected at the Islas del Rosario (Colombia, Caribbean Sea), showed antifouling activity using field bioassays. This fraction was separated by CC on silica gel obtaining a mixture of methyl esters, and enriched fractions of glycerides, glycolipids, phospholipids and free fatty acids. All of them were identified by TLC and dereplication techniques (NMR). The glyceride, glycolipid, and phospholipid fractions were hydrolyzed and the fatty acids obtained, together with the initial fatty acids fraction, were converted into their methyl esters and analyzed by HRGC-MS. To locate unsaturations and alkyl branches in fatty acids, their methyl esters derivates were transformed to pyrrolidides and subsequently analyzed by HRGC-MS. The identity of the fatty acids was carried out using their ECL value as methyl esters, and particularly the study of their pirrolidide spectra was used to locate unsaturations and alkyl branch positions. This study allowed us to identify 81 fatty acids, four of them never reported before: 4,8-hexadecadienoic acid, 11-methy l-4, 10-octadecadienoic acid, 6,9,12,14-icosatetraenoic acid, and 6,9,12,14,17-icosapentanoic acid.
