Calamenenes--aromatic bicyclic sesquiterpenes--from the Indian gorgonian Subergorgia reticulata (Ellis and Solander, 1786).[Pubmed: 21246444]
Three aromatic sesquiterpene derivatives, (+)-(7R, 10S)-2-methoxy calamenene (1), (+)-(7R, 10S)-2,5-dimethoxy calamenene (2) and (+)-(7R, 10S)-2-methoxy-5-acetoxy calamenene (3) were isolated from the methanol extract of the Indian gorgonian Subergorgia reticulata. Compound 2 has not been previously described in the literature. Compound 3 has not been isolated previously from a natural source. Compounds 1, 2 and 3 showed settlement inhibition activity against cyprids of Balanus amphitrite with EC(50) values of 4.4, 7.8 and 0.03 µg mL(-1), respectively. These compounds also exhibited considerable activity against Artemia nauplii at 50 µg mL(-1), indicative of their potential use as cytotoxic agents.
[Chemical constituents from the south China sea gorgonian coral Subergorgia reticulata].[Pubmed: 17039875]
Nine compounds, cholesterol (1), ergostra-7,22-diene-3beta, 5alpha, 6beta-triol (2), cholesta-7,22-diene-3beta, 5alpha, 6beta-triol (3),5,8-epidioxycampesta-6,22-dien-3-o1 (4), batyl alcohol (5), theine (6), thymine (7), uracil (8), guanine (9), were isolated from the South China Sea gorgonian coral Subergorgia reticulata and their structures elucidated on the basis of spectral data. All of these compounds were isolated for the first time from this gorgonian coral.
