The nature and diversity of chemical structures with pharmacological activity that have been found in marine organisms justifies the search for new compounds that may have applications in various areas of interest. Species of red seaweeds, especially Laurencia spp., are special because of the unprecedented variety of terpenes, acetogenins and other chemical classes they produce that are c…
Marine algae have been evaluated as an attractive source of potential drugs in several biochemical and pharmacological investigations. Among seaweeds, the Rhodophyta Laurencia sensu lato, are known to be an extremely rich source of unique halogenated secondary metabolites, especially sesquiterpenes and acetogenins. Some Brazilian species of Laurencia have been reported to contain compound…
