, p. 1849 - 1852 (1980)
UV, IR, NMR (1H and 13C) and mass spectra show that epoxyeleganolone and eleganediol, isolated from Bifurcaria bifurcata Ross, are two linear diterpenes related with eleganolone previously shown up in this alga.
SEASONAL CHEMICAL EVOLUTION OF THE ALGA CYSTOSEIRA ELEGANS

, p. 2036 - 2037 (1981)
Among the Mediterranean algae belonging to the family Cystoseiraceae analysed for diterpenic compounds, only Cystoseira elegans contains eleganolone, epoxy-eleganolone and elegandiol, as does the Atlantic alga Bifurcaria bifurcata.Surprisingly, for the seasonal Cystoseira elegans, these compounds are present only at the beginning of growth of the alga during Spring and they disappear in the Summer yielding important seasonal variation data for diterpenoids, and also for sterols, alginic acid, mannitol and cellulose.Key Word Index - Cystoseira elegans; Cystoseiraceae; Phaeophyceae; eleganolone; acyclic diterpenoids.
Studies on the synthesis of elegan-type linear diterpenes: The efficient total syntheses of eleganolone, eleganolone acetate, elegandiol, eleganonal, and epoxyeleganolone
Li,Lan,Liu,Li
, p. 92 - 95 (2007/10/03)
The first total syntheses of five elegan-type linear diterpenes- eleganolone (1), eleganolone acetate (2), elegandiol (3), eleganonal (4), and epoxyeleganolone (5)-were accomplished starting from (E,E)-farnesol (6) via four to six steps, successively, with high overall yield. The key step was the alkylation reaction of silyl cyanide with allylic iodide.
