Abstract
Three new sterols, 5α,8α-epidioxy-24-norcholesta-6,9(11),22-trien-3β-ol (1), 5α,8α-epidioxy-cholesta-6,9(11),24-trien-3β-ol (2), and 5α,8α-epidioxy-cholesta-6,23-dien-3β,25-diol (3), with four known sterols (4-7) were isolated from a marine sponge Monanchora sp. Their chemical structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis. Compounds 1 and 3-7 showed moderate cytotoxicity against several human carcinoma cell lines including renal (A-498), pancreatic (PANC-1 and MIA PaCa-2), and colorectal (HCT 116) cancer cell lines.
