A New Diterpene from a Soft CoralSarcophyton trocheliphorum

Bissubvilides A and B, Cembrane–Capnosane Heterodimers from the Soft CoralSarcophyton subviride

“…Capnosanes are rarely occurring diterpenoids in soft corals and are sometimes regarded as cembranoid derivatives with an irregular carbobicyclic skeleton. Since the first report in 1986, capnosanes have so far been found in six species of soft corals including Cespitularia sp., Alcyonium coralloides , Sarcophyton trocheliophorum , ,, Sarcophyton elegans , Sarcophyton solidum , Sarcophyton tortuosum , and Sinularia pavida. , Among them, sarsolilides A–C represent the only three capnosanes containing an α,β-unsaturated ε-lactone moiety. , Bissubvilides A and B represent a novel heterodimeric skeleton formed by the coupling of a capnosane and a cembrane.…”

The Soft Coral Sarcophyton trocheliophorum: A Warehouse of Terpenoids with Structural and Pharmacological Diversity

“…As revealed in the literature [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 ], most of the chemically investigated S. trocheliophorum specimens were collected off the islands in the South China Sea and Indian Ocean, and off the coasts of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Australia. These collection sites can be divided into three sea waters: the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the Red Sea.…”

“…These collection sites can be divided into three sea waters: the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the Red Sea. Most of the specimens originated from the Pacific Ocean ( Table S1 ) [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 ]. In this review, terpenoids from S. trocheliophorum were classified into three classes: sesquiterpenoids, diterpenoids, and biscembranoids.…”
