3-amino-1-(2-aminoimidazolyl)-prop-i-ene from the marine sponges Teichaxinella morchella and Ptilocaulis walpersi

The compound 3-amino- I-(2-aminoimidazoyl)-prop-l-ene [3], a possible biosynthetic precursor to the oroidin class of metabolites, has been isolated from the marine sponges Teichaxinella morchella and Ptilocaulis walpersi. Its isolation and structure elucidation are reported.
