(no. 2508), obtained from the South China Sea. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic and X-ray diffraction experiments. Xyloketal A is a ketal compound with a C3 symmetry and xyloketals B-E are its analogues. It was found that xytoketal C slowly rearranged to xytoketal B in DMSO-d6 solution at room temperature. Xyloketal A exhibited the activity of inhibiting acetylcholine esterase.}, year = {2001}, journal = {Journal of Organic Chemistry}, volume = {66}, pages = {6252-6256}, month = {2001}, url = {http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-0035929454&partnerID=40&md5=8876b1ca0227dc566d792beb125f3416}, note = {Cited By :192Export Date: 25 February 2016}, }
