Abstract

Eight new diterpenoids have been isolated from three soft corals, Alcyonium utinomii, Lobophytum pauciflorum and Lobophytum crassum. The compounds were shown to be: 1,3,7,10-cembratetraen-12-ol(4); 1,3,6,11-cembratetraen-8-ol5; 1,3,7,12(20)-cembratetraen-ll-ol (6a); 2,7,11-cembratrien-4,15-diol(8); 3,7,10-cembratrien-12, 15-diol(9); and the lobolide related deacetyldeepoxy lobolide (15), deepoxy lobolide (16) and deacetyl-13-hydroxy lobolide (17), by spectral data and chemical studies (mainly ozonolysis).
