An Unusual Sesquiterpene Derivative from the Caribbean Gorgonian Pseudopterogorgia r igida

A new sesquiterpene derivative named mochiquinone (1) was isolated from the Caribbean gorgonian coral Pseudopterogorgia rigida collected off northeastern Venezuela, along with the known compounds, α-curcumene, (−)-curcuphenol, (−)-curcuquinone, and (−)-curcuhydroquinone. The structure of the new com...

Zusammenfassung:A new sesquiterpene derivative named mochiquinone (1) was isolated from the Caribbean gorgonian coral Pseudopterogorgia rigida collected off northeastern Venezuela, along with the known compounds, α-curcumene, (−)-curcuphenol, (−)-curcuquinone, and (−)-curcuhydroquinone. The structure of the new compound was determined by spectroscopic analysis of its acetylated derivative and comparison with known compounds.
