The molecule is an enamide obtained by the formal condensation of the amino group of glycine with the carboxy group of 14,14-dibromotetradeca-2,13-dienoic acid (the 2E stereoisomer). It is isolated from the marine sponge Siliquariaspongia sp. and exhibits antibacterial properties. It has a role as a metabolite and an antibacterial agent. It is a monocarboxylic acid, an enamide, an organobromine compound, a N-acylglycine and a fatty amide.
