Muriceanol, a 24(28)-Epoxide Sterol Link in the Carbon Flux Toward Side-Chain Dealkylation of Sterols

Side‐chain‐oxidized C‐28‐sterol 1 and one new pregnane metabolite 2 were isolated from eastern Pacific Muricea spp. The C‐24(28)‐epoxide functionality is a key intermediate in the C‐24‐dealkylation mechanism of the conversion of phytosterol to cholesterol by phytophagous insects. Certain marine inve...
