T. Iwagawa et al., ICHTHYOTOXIC CEMBRANOIDS FROM THE SOFT CORAL, SARCOPHYTON SP, Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, 69(12), 1996, pp. 3543-3549
Ten new ichthyotoxic cembranoids: sartol A (1), 4-O-methylsartol A (2)
, sartones A (3), B (4), C (5), D (6), 4-O-methylsartone B (7), epoxys
artone A (8), 6 beta-hydroxysarcotol acetate (9), and 4-O-methylsarcot
ol (10) have been isolated from the soft coral, Sarcophyton sp. The ic
hthyotoxicity tests were performed for 1, 3-7, and 10, including the r
