Ad. Rodriguez et al., Elisabatins A and B: New amphilectane-type diterpenes from the west Indiansea whip Pseudopterogorgia elisabethae, J NAT PROD, 62(7), 1999, pp. 997-999
A chemical study of the hexane extracts of the gorgonian octocoral Pseudopt
erogorgia elisabethae collected in San Andres Island, Colombia, led to the
isolation of two highly conjugated amphilectane-type diterpenes, compounds
1 and 2. Their structures were established by spectroscopic studies, which
included 2D NMR correlation methods, IR, UV, and accurate mass measurements
(HREIMS).
