Abstract:
Two diterpenes, a novel seco-furanocembranolide (3) and the highly oxygenated cembranolide bipinnatolide K (4), have been isolated from the West Indian gorgonian octocoral Pseudopterogorgia bipinnata. The chemical structures of these compounds were determined by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy in combination with IR, UV, and HRFABMS analyses.
