Paralemnolins X and Y, New Antimicrobial Sesquiterpenoids from the Soft Coral <i>Paralemnalia thyrsoide</i>

The organic extracts of the Red Sea soft coral <i>Paralemnalia thyrsoides</i> has led to the identification of two neolemnane-type sesquiterpenoids: paralemnolins X and Y (<b>1</b>, <b>2</b>). In addition to these newly characterized compounds, ten known metabolit...

description The organic extracts of the Red Sea soft coral <i>Paralemnalia thyrsoides</i> has led to the identification of two neolemnane-type sesquiterpenoids: paralemnolins X and Y (<b>1</b>, <b>2</b>). In addition to these newly characterized compounds, ten known metabolites (<b>3</b>–<b>12</b>) were isolated. Previously reported compounds were elucidated by literature comparison of spectroscopic data (1D and 2D NMR as well as MS data). In vitro antimicrobial activity was investigated for compounds (<b>1</b>–<b>12</b>) against <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>, <i>Escherichia coli</i>, <i>Candida albicans</i> and <i>Aspergillus niger</i>. Compound <b>5</b> showed antimicrobial activity against all assayed microorganisms.
