Abstract: The structure of bonellin, the physiologically active pigment of the marine echurian worm Bonellia viridis, has been established as (10a), a unique type of alkylated chlorin, by a combination 01 phvs ical methods. The structure was confirmed by an X-ray crystallographic study on anhydrobonellin methyl ester (12b). Bonellin is accompanied in the organism by a series of mono-ami no-acid conjugate derivatives of general structure (14a) in which valine, leucine. isoleucine, and allojsoleucine are the major amino-acid constituents.
