Superacid cyclization was demonstrated for the first time to be successful in those ionic liquids with functional groups that are stable in the reaction medium using aliphatic sesquiterpene derivatives as examples.
Isolation and synthesis of tanyolides A and B, metabolites of the nudibranch Sclerodoris tanya

The nudibranch Sclerodoris tanya, which was collected intertidally at La Jolla, contains two sesquiterpene glyceride esters, tanyolides A (4) and B (5). The structures of the tanyolides were elucidated by interpretation of spectral data. The absolute configuration of tanyolide B (5) was determined by synthesis of both enantiomers and the structure of tanyolide A (4) was also confirmed by synthesis. The tanyolides, which are located primarily in the dorsal mantle, deter feeding by two ecologically-relevant predatory fish.
