1 H NMR signals at unusually high field (δ = 3.9–4.1 rather than 4.0–4.6 as in known cyclopeptides) render the proposed structures 1 and 2 unlikely for fenestin A and fenestin B, two cyclopeptides isolated from Pacific sponges. Synthesis and analysis of the postulated compound 2 as well as the dimer of 1 have made it possible to show that the suggested structure for fenestin B is wrong, while that for fenestin A must at least be regarded as questionable.
