title: A rare prostaglandin from the soft coral Sarcophyton crassocaule of the Indian Ocean.
abstract: The rare prostaglandin methyl (5Z)-9,15-dioxoprosta-5, 8(12)-dien-1-oate (1), hitherto unreported as a natural product, has been isolated from the Indian Ocean soft coral Sarcophyton crassocaule. Its structure was elucidated using detailed spectral ((1)H and (13)C NMR, DEPT, H-H COSY, C-H COSY, HRMS, and HMBC) analysis.
