title: Carijenone, a novel class of bicyclic prostanoid from the eastern Pacific octocoral Carijoa multiflora.
abstract: [structure: see text] An unprecedented biogenetically interesting bicyclic prostanoid 1, carijenone, has been isolated from the eastern Pacific octocoral Carijoa multiflora. The C-12 oxygenated function, characteristic of the coral cyclopentanone fatty acid derivatives, is involved in the formation of a five-membered oxane ring fused to the cyclopentane network. Its structure and stereochemistry were determined on the basis of spectral studies and molecular mechanics calculations.
