The structures of these compounds were determined by extensive spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic analysis, as well as Mosher's method. We revised the absolute configuration at C(23) in the side chain of some lanostanoids as a result of the Mosher's products of 1 (i.e., 1a and 1b). The cytotoxicities against selected cancer cells and the anti-inflammatory effects of these tested metabolites 1-7 were determined in vitro. ? 2009 Verlag Helvetica Chimica Acta AG, Z?rich.application/pdf280440 bytesapplication/pdfen-US[SDGs]SDG3[SDGs]SDG143beta,22 ergosta 5,24(28) diene 3,17,22 triol; 3beta,23 ergosta 5,24(28) diene 3,23 diol; 5,6,7,8 tetrahydro 4alpha,8 dimethylnaphthalen 2(4alpha h) one; 5,6,7,8 tetrahydro 5 methyl 8 (1 methylethyl)naphthalene 2 carbaldehyde; aristolone; ergostanoid derivative; lanostanoid derivative; natural product; Nephthea erecta extract; sesquiterpene derivative; trinoreudesmadienone; unclassified drug; drug derivative; lanostanoid; lanosterol; animal cell; antiinflammatory activity; article; controlled study; coral; drug cytotoxicity; drug isolation; drug screening; drug structure; electrospray mass spectrometry; human; human cell; leukemia cell line; macrophage; mouse; Nephthea erecta; nonhuman; structure analysis; Taiwan; X ray crystallography; animal; Anthozoa; cell line; chemistry; isolation and purification; nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy; Alcyonacea; Nephthea; Animals; Anthozoa; Cell Line; Humans; Lanosterol; Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy; MiceRevision of the Absolute Configuration at C(23) of Lanostanoids and Isolation of Secondary Metabolites from Formosan Soft Coral Nephthea erectajournal article10.1002/cbdv.2008000152-s2.0-63049129348WOS:000263138200006http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/174479/1/96.pdf
