Abstract
Acetopterine (1) is a new tetracyclic pseudopterane alkaloid isolated from the purple sea plume Pseudopterogorgia acerosa collected in Puert o Rico. Its structure has been determined by spectroscopic methods. Th e unique transposed nature of the lactone function in 1 was establishe d by two-dimensional 1 H-1-H-1 and H-1-C-13 NMR correlation experiment s and confirmed by mass spectral analysis.
