The skeleton of sinularianins A (1), namely sinulariolane, was found to be unprecedented. Sinularianin B (2), with a novel spiro-butenolide moiety, possesses a valerenane skeleton, which had been reported mostly from the plant. The structures of both metabolites were established by extensive analysis of spectroscopic data. ? 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
