New terpenoids from the soft corals Sinularia capillosa and Nephthea chabroli.
Two new terpenoids, capillosanol (1) and chabranol (2), possessing unprecedented terpenoid skeletons, were isolated from the soft corals Sinularia capillosa and Nephthea chabroli, respectively. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated through extensive spectroscopic analyses. The cytotoxicities of these compounds were tested in vitro.
