          Abstract

          The structures, names, bioactivities, and references of 81 new secondary metabolites obtained from gorgonian corals belonging to the genus Junceella are described in this review. All compounds mentioned in this review were obtained from sea whip gorgonian corals Junceella fragilis and Junceella juncea, collected from the tropical and subtropical Indo-Pacific Ocean.

            Frajunolides E-K, briarane diterpenes from Junceella fragilis.

            Yao-Lung Kuo, Ya Shen, Yann-Sheng Lin … (2008)
            Chemical investigation of the gorgonian octocoral Junceella fragilis, collected in Taiwan, resulted in the isolation of seven new briarane-type diterpenes, frajunolides E-K (1-7), in addition to 14 known briaranes, praelolide, junceellin, junceellolides A-E, and K, 11a,20a-epoxy-4-deacetoxyjunceelolide D, umbraculolide A, junceellonoid A, and juncins Y, Z, and ZI, as well as ergosterol peroxide. The structures of 1-7 were determined by analysis of HRESIMS and 2D NMR spectroscopic data. Cytotoxicity and in vitro anti-inflammatory activities of compounds 1-7 were also evaluated.

              Junceellolides J-L, 11,20-epoxybriaranes from the gorgonian coral Junceella fragilis.

              Yu Chen, Lee-Shing Fang, Jyh-Horng Sheu … (2006)
              Three new 11,20-epoxybriarane diterpenoids, junceellolides J-L (1-3), along with a known metabolite, 4, have been isolated from the gorgonian coral Junceella fragilis. The structures of these metabolites were elucidated using spectroscopic methods. The cyclohexane rings were found to exist in boat form in briaranes 1 and 4 and in chair form in 2 and 3. The structure of 1 was further confirmed by chemical conversion and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The relationship between (13)C NMR chemical shifts and the conformation of the cyclohexane ring in briaranes possessing an 11,20-epoxy group are described. The briaranes 2 and 4 showed mild inhibitory effects on human neutrophil elastase release.
