Three new acylated spermidines and two known related compounds were isolated from the Okinawan soft coral, Sinularia sp. These compounds were N', N, N-trimethylspermidines that are acylated by a methyl-branched unsaturated fatty acid. These acylspermidines showed potent cytotoxicity against human tumor cell lines at an IC50 value of 17 ng/ml and the induction of apoptotic phenomena.
