Title: Oxygenated analogues of gorgosterol and ergosterol from the soft coral Capnella lacertiliensis.

Authors: Wright AD, Goclik E, König GM.

Abstract: From the dichloromethane solubles of Capnella lacertiliensis five new sterols were isolated that are highly functionalized with oxygen-containing substituents: 12beta-acetoxy-7alpha-hydroxygorgosterol (1), 12beta-acetoxy-7alpha,19-dihydroxygorgosterol (2), 12beta-acetoxyergost-5-ene-3beta,23-diol (4), 12beta-acetoxyergost-5-ene-3beta,11beta,16-triol (5), and 11beta-acetoxyergost-5-ene-3beta,12beta,16-triol (6). The structures of all compounds were deduced from interpretation of their spectroscopic data, mainly 1D and 2D NMR spectra and HREIMS. Biological activities of the isolates were assessed, and all were found to be weakly antifungal. Compounds 5 and 6 were also found to have weak tyrosine kinase p56(lck)() (TK) inhibitory activity at the 200 microgram/mL level.
