Abstract
Four undescribed sesquiterpenoids, lemneolemnanes A-D (1-4), have been isolated from the marine soft coral Lemnalia sp. The absolute configurations of the stereogenic carbons of 1-4 were determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 are epimers at C-3 and have an unusual skeleton with a formyl group on C-6. Compound 3 possesses an uncommonly rearranged carbon skeleton, while 4 has a 6/5/5 tricyclic system. Compound 1 showed significant anti-Alzheimer's disease (AD) activity in a humanized Caenorhabditis elegans AD pathological model.
