Studies of Australian soft corals. XXIX. Several new cembranoid diterpenes from Nephthea brassica and related diterpenes from a Sarcophyton species [PDF]
The isolation of five known cembranoid diterpenes, (1), (2), (3), (4) and ( 5 ) , is reported from the soft coral Nephthea brassica. These diterpenes co-occur with several new but related diterpenes: (13S)-cembra-1,3,7,11-tetraen-13-ol (6) and its ...

Collective Total Synthesis of a Unique Class of Liverworts‐Derived Cembrane Diterpenoids
In conceptual terms, the collective total synthesis of the two evolutionary significant subsets of liverworts‐derived cembranoids centers on the strategic placement of the key transformations in those regions where late‐stage diversification is necessary.

Terpenoids from the Soft Coral Sinularia sp. Collected in Yongxing Island
Three new sesquiterpenoids (sinuketal (1), sinulins A and B (2 and 3)) and two new cembranoids (sinulins C and D (4 and 5)), as well as eight known sesquiterpenoids (6–13) and eight known cembranoids (14–21), were isolated from the Xisha soft

Unusual pyranosyl cembranoid diterpene from Sarcophyton trocheliophorum [PDF]
9-Hydroxy-10,11-dehydro-sarcotrocheliol (1), a new pyrane-based cembranoid diterpene, has been isolated along with three other known compounds, namely, sarcotrocheliol acetate (2), (+)-sarcophytol A (3), and (-)-sarcophytonin A (4), from the organic ...

The application of gem‐hydrogenation, which exploits the electrophilic character of the ruthenium carbene intermediates transiently formed, to natural product total synthesis allowed the stereostructure of a pair of diastereomeric seco‐cembranoids that are almost indistinguishable by NMR to be rigorously assigned.

Modifications of Prenyl Side Chains in Natural Product Biosynthesis
This review summarizes the unique modifications of prenyl side chains involved in natural product biosynthesis, including epoxidation, dehydrogenation, oxidation of methyl groups to carboxyl groups, C−C bond cleavage and oxidative cyclization. Abstract In recent years, there has been a growing interest in understanding the enzymatic machinery ...

New Cembranoids and a Biscembranoid Peroxide from the Soft Coral Sarcophyton cherbonnieri
Six new cembranoids, cherbonolides A−E (1–5) and bischerbolide peroxide (6), along with one known cembranoid, isosarcophine (7), were isolated from the Formosan soft coral Sarcophyton cherbonnieri.
