Motivation 3

Introduction �Isolation: Alkaloids were first isolated from the marine sponge Haliclona sp. in the Okinawa Sea by Higa et al. in 1986. �Biological activities: insecticidal, cytotoxicity, antibacterial, anti-HIV-I, anti-infective, anti. Alzheimer diseases, and anti-malarial activity. �P 388 mouse leukaemia cells (IC 50 = 0. 07 µg/m. L or 2. 4 µg/m. L) 4
