Abstract

Eight new marine steroids were isolated from the Okinawan soft coral Clavularia viridis Quoy and Gaimard. Their structures were determined based on spectroscopic analysis, chemical conversion, and X-ray crystallographic analysis. Steroids 5 and 6 showed growth inhibition activity toward HeLa S3 cells and human diploid cells in vitro.
