Sponges are a well-known bioresource for bioactive compounds. In this study, antibacterial activity-guided fractionation of the extract from an Indonesian marine <i>Dactylospongia elegans</i> sponge led to the discovery of four merosesquiterpenoids, namely, a new sesquiterpenoid aminoquinone nakijiquinone V (<b>1</b>), along with illimaquinone (<b>2</b>), smenospongine (<b>3</b>), and dyctioceratine C (<b>4</b>). The structure of compound <b>1</b> was elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR as well as by LC ...[more]
