Cover Feature: Rubrolides A, D, P, T, U: Total Syntheses and Antibacterial Evaluation of Highly Brominated Marine Natural Products (ChemistryEurope 2/2026)
Abstract
The Cover Feature shows an octopus in an underwater lab holding marine-derived rubrolides A, D, P, T, U, and a rubrolide U analog as well as two building blocks in its tentacles. The ceiling displays a biofilm control to emphasize the compounds’ outstanding antibiofilm activity. Behind the window, one can see the beautiful underwater world where these natural products are produced. More information can be found in the Research Article by I. Alio, N. Schuetzenmeister and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/ceur.202500298).
