title: Three new nardosinane Type Sesquiterpenes from an Indonesian Soft Coral Nephthea sp.
abstract: Three new sesquiterpenes, 2-deoxy-7-O-methyllemnacarnol (1), 2-deoxy-12 alpha-ethoxy-7-O-methyllemnacarnol (2), and 2-deoxy-12 alpha-methoxy-7-O-methyllemnacarnol (3), were isolated from a soft coral Nephthea sp. collected in Indonesia, together with five known sesquiterpenes. The structures of the new compounds were assigned on the basis of their spectroscopic data.
