Abstract
A previously isolated trihydroxy-gorgosterol derivative (2), a new gorgoste rol (3), and the known sterol cholestane-3 beta ,5 alpha ,6 beta -triol are reported from the Caribbean octocoral Eunicea laciniata collected off nort heast Venezuela. Using high-resolution 2D NMR techniques, the total structu ral assignment and detailed stereochemistry of 2 is presented for the first time and the full structure of 3 advanced.
