Lobophytones O–T, New Biscembranoids and Cembranoid from Soft Coral Lobophytum pauciflorum
Chemical examination of a Chinese soft coral Lobophytum pauciflorum resulted in the isolation of five new biscembranoids named lobophytones O–S (1–5) and a new “monomeric” cembrane lobophytone T (6). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by
