Abstract
[GRAPHICS] Two novel C-24 tricyclic alkenes of the cheilanthane series have been isola ted from the solvent extract of a sulfur-rich recent sediment and their str uctures determined by NMR studies. They represent the first example of func tionalized tricyclic hydrocarbons structurally related to the tricyclopolyp renanes widespread in ancient sediments and petroleum identified in recent sediments.
