Abstract: Sephadex LH-20 columnchromatography,silica column chromatography and HPLC methods were used to isolate and refine compounds from sponge Theonella swinhoei from the South China Sea.The structures were identified by spectroscopic analysis and comparison with the literatures.From the n-BuOH soluble extract of Theonella swinhoei, six compounds were isolated for the first time and their structures were determined as thymidine(1),thymidine-5′-carboxylic acid methyl ester(2),thymidine-5′-carboxylic acid butyl ester(3),uracil(4),thymine(5),7,8-Dimethyl-iso-alloxazine(6).

Key words: sponge, chemical constituents, structural identification
