Abstract
Chemical investigation of the soft coral Alcyonium antarcticum, collected off Terra Nova Bay, resulted in the isolation of two closely related sesquiterpenes, alcyonicene (1) and deacetoxy-alcyonicene (2), along with known terpenoid compounds. The structure elucidation of the new molecules, possessing a rare bulgarane skeleton, has been made mainly by NMR techniques.
