Avarol
Chemical compound / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Avarol is a hydroquinone first isolated from the Mediterranean marine sponge Dysidea avara 1974 [1] Avarol represented the first sesquiterpenoid with a rearranged drimane skeleton and its structure was established by standard analytical methods, chemical degradation and later by stereocontrolled synthesis. Intrigued by the wide range of biological activities of this metabolite, Avarol has inspired the development of many synthetic derivatives and the study of their applications.
