title: Milolides G-N, new Briarane diterpenoids from the Western Pacific octocoral Briareum stechei.
abstract: Twelve new briarane diterpenes, designated milolides (1-12), and one known diterpene, 9-deacetylstylatulide lactone (13), were isolated from the Micronesian octocoral Briareum stechei collected at Yap, Federated States of Micronesia. Their structures were determined from spectral data.
