(Chemical Equation Presented) The first total syntheses of (+)-alismoxide and (+)-4-epialismoxide are reported. Formal chemo-, regio-, and stereo-selective addition of water to 10α-acetoxy-1αH,5βH- guaia-3,6-diene afforded the target compounds after reduc

Two guaiane-type sesquiterpenoids named orientalol E (1) and orientalol F (3) were isolated from the rhizome of Alisma orientalis (SAM) JUZEP together with two known guaiane-type sesquiterpenoids alismol (2) and alismoxide (4). Their relative stereo-struc

Four new polyhydroxysterols, named xeniasterol-a (4), xeniasterol-b (5), xeniasterol-c (6), and xeniasterol-d (7), were isolated from an Okinawan soft coral of Xenia sp. (Xeniidae).On the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence, the structures of xeniasterol-a, -b, -c, and -d have been elucidated respectively as 7-O-acetylergost-22E-ene-3β,5α,6β,7β-tetraol (4), 7-O-acetylergosta-3β,5α,6β,7β-tetraol (5), gorgosta-3β,5α,6β-triol (6), and 7-O-acetylgorgosta-3β,5α,6β,7β-tetraol (7).Germacrene-c (1) was also isolated from the same soft coral together with two guaiane-type compounds (2,3), and it has been shown that germacrene-c (1) is readily air-oxidized to yield these cyclization products (2,3).Keywords-soft coral; Xenia sp.; Xeniidae; sterol polyhydroxylated; xeniasterol-a; xeniasterol-b; xeniasterol-c; xeniasterol-d; sesquiterpene; germacrene-c
